Addressing Global Ocean challenges and developing a sustainable blue economy are priority areas for the European Union and its Member States over the coming decade. This policy focus and the corresponding funding coming online presents a major opportunity for marine researchers. At the same time, there has been a shift in the design of many funding programmes and the requirements set out within call topics that requires some reflection and potential adjustment vs the status quo. Research & Innovation projects are now expected to contribute to specific impacts and work in multidisciplinary, multi-actor cross value chain partnerships co-producing results and solutions.
EuroMarine as a member-based, interdisciplinary, collaborative network of European marine organisations and research institutes, is looking to find a way for their members to address the Ocean Global Challenges in this new context.
For this, EuroMarine is organising the EuroMarine 2022 Open Science Day and General Assembly Meeting on 17th and 18th of February 2022 as a virtual event.
The event is divided into two days:
17th February 2022 - EuroMarine 2022 Open Science Day
The first day will be a science day open to all marine researchers with the following title: “How can the marine research community contribute to address the global ocean challenges?”
Join us for a stimulating day exploring key considerations, opportunities and challenges for the marine research community and identification of how Euromarine can support its members going forward
18th February 2022 – EuroMarine Strategy and General Assembly
The first session on day 2 will be a facilitated discussion on the EuroMarine Strategy for the next two years. The main focus will be what services are needed by member organisations to support their work role in addressing the global marine challenges. This session is open to any staff/students from EuroMarine members. This session will be followed by the EuroMarine General Assembly Meeting open to EuroMarine General Assembly representatives or their substitutes only.
