Our University intends to launch an action plan meant to enhance synergies to implement Mission Oceans and Waters in the Mediterranean basin, with specific impact on the Sicilian Region territory and its islands, starting from a public event which will be organized and hosted by University of Palermo on 2 February 2024.
The participation of keynote speakers from the European Commission DG Research and Innovation and from BluMissionMed initiative is envisaged, as well as a round table with the presence of policy makers from the Regional Administration Council in charge for planning and environmental management.
Local municipalities and NGOs will be engaged to take active part in the event.
An overall aim of the action plan is to support research and innovation in a system of European and national funding programmes, sharing policy objectives, proposing as a network point between political institutions and scientific actors, collaborating to realise synergies between R&I funding instruments (European and national) and building partnerships for SBEPs.
