EU4Algae continues to be a vital information hub, bringing together the latest breakthroughs, events, and resources for stakeholders dedicated to advancing algae-based solutions.
The European Ocean Days is a week-long event featuring a series of dynamic and interconnected sessions dedicated to key maritime topics. Each day focuses on a distinct ocean-related theme, allowing participants to engage in discussions on the sustainable blue economy, fisheries science outcomes, actions under the Mission Restore our Ocean and Waters, blue investments, and dialogues with key stakeholders, including youth representatives.
