Objectives

  • GENERAL OBJECTIVES:

    The 9 teachers involved belong to different areas (science, arts, foreign languages) and some of the common aims for all of us are:

    Learning about the ocean and contributing to raise awareness on United Nations SDG number 14: "Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources".

    We will identify, work and reflect on the main threats to the ocean: climate change, pollution, plastics, overfishing, etc.

    We will talk to people (and learn from them) who work to protect and conserve the oceans in different fields.

    Another aim is to involve our school communities in the project (studying the ocean from different areas and fields of study), and make wide dissemination, to reach authorities, companies, organizations and society in general.
