On the 26th and 27th of October 2023, the Erasmus Maris Days stood as a remarkable milestone in the journey towards marine conservation and education, endorsed as a key activity of the UN Ocean Decade.
The event was co-organised by the European Commission's Joint Research Centre, The Generalitat Valenciana and the NGO Ayam Sailing Europe.
The primary aim of the event was to forge a robust alliance between the European scientific community and the formal education sector capitalised on the exceptional non-formal learning environment provided by nautical activities and sailboats, seeking innovative ways to intertwine education and marine exploration.

The event was an unequivocal success, surpassing all expectations. Distinguished by the presence of esteemed participants from prominent institutions like the EU Commission - JRC, UNESCO-IOC, the European Committee of the Region, European schools networks, and stakeholders from the nautical sector.  Click here for more

Why? 
to transform current practices of  and make a significant impact environmental in the field of education and environmental research

The pedagogical sailboat concept developed during our first pilot project 
The sailboat has a strong power of attraction over youth because it conveys an ecological message and produces a feeling of freedom and adventure. 
The sailboat is used as a motivation factor and a contextual environment to acquire:
Transversal competence: organisation, communication, team working, leadership etc.
Technical competences: The technical competences are acquired through hands-on activities on the engine, the electrical installation, the onboard electronics, etc.
