The SeaChange Project

The SeaChange project, a major new initiative to promote ocean literacy in Europe, has recently published two new outputs – Ocean literacy factsheets and an oceans and human health animation. As an intrinsic part of the Sea Change project, all actions and outputs are assessed in terms of their impact in promoting ocean literacy. This helps us to refine future ocean literacy actions by examining the effectiveness of different activities.
