Poster Exhibition for EU-funded projects
As part of the event on the future of Europe’s Seas on 6 March, the European Commission organises a poster exhibition of EU-funded projects. The project are relevant for one or more of the four themes of the event: Global drivers, Economy, Society and Innovation.
21 projects and initiatives funded under four EU programmes managed by CINEA will participate in the exhibition with posters. The funding programmes are EMFF/EMFAF, Horizon Europe, LIFE Programme, and Innovation Fund.
The projects will showcase inspiring solutions to the major challenges faced by the ocean and the coastal areas. The themes range from marine litter and biodiversity, to aquaculture, tourism and renewable energies.
