EDUCATIONAL MODULES

Five educational modules for educators have been produced. They translate the project’s scientific outputs − covering pelagic and benthic marine ecosystems, the tools developed to study and map them, and their relevance to policy and decision-making − into a complete, ready-to-use educational resource for marine educators, teachers, learners and other relevant stakeholders.
