The conference takes place in Batumi, Georgia, a vibrant coastal city in the southeast.

At this conference, EMSEA members, organizations and individuals that have been invaluable to marine education in the first decade, will share their expertise on marine education.

In Batumi, a Black Sea Literacy Network will be established, under the framework of BRIDGE-BS (bridgeblacksea.org) project. The goal is to bring together marine scientists, educators, companies involved in blue economy, ocean professionals, and anyone who is enthusiastic and curious about education on the Black Sea.

The conference aims to showcase good education and training practices on improving knowledge on the marine environment, the blue economy and maritime careers. Moreover, it is an opportunity to network by facilitating a regional dialogue on Ocean Literacy in the Black Sea and with the wider EMSEA community.

Abstracts submission for posters are accepted until 25 August at 12:00 CET.
