The EUNICoast alliance - The European University of Islands, Ports and Coastal Territories (www.eunicoast.eu), organized its 1st online conference on 27 September 2024.
With a two-fold aim, the conference introduced the EUNICoast Alliance to the public and proposed a set of selected talks in the five thematic domains covered by EUNICoast Alliance:
Overall, about 80 contributions, proposed by the 13 member universities of the alliance, were presented in a 7 parallel tracks organization. The e-conference was attended by 378 registered participants, including more than 40 participants from outside the Alliance.
The detailed program of the conference is available on https://eunicoast.eu/events/eunicoast-on-line-conference.
Bringing together 13 European Higher Education institutions located in sea ports and islands, the EUNICoast European University Alliance seeks to create meaningful connections between maritime territories and communities, and empower students to engage purposefully with them and better respond to pertinent societal and environmental challenges.
