Last week, GES4SEAS partner CSIC actively participated in Science Week, hosting six engaging sessions for young students. Each session welcomed 10 students, offering an interactive experience centred around GES4SEAS materials to explore key marine science topics, including cumulative impacts, conservation strategies, and species distribution.

The sessions aimed to make complex environmental concepts accessible and relatable for children, fostering a deeper understanding of the challenges facing our oceans. One of the highlights was the Rubik’s Cube activity, a creative and hands-on approach to demonstrating the intricate connections within marine ecosystems. The activity was met with enthusiasm, helping students visualize how individual changes can affect the broader environmental puzzle.

This initiative reflects GES4SEAS’ commitment to ocean literacy, encouraging future generations to engage with marine conservation and sustainability. By combining education with interactive tools, CSIC’s efforts during Science Week exemplify how science can be brought to life for younger audiences.
