Marine Mammals - Science education

Share this project

Marine Mammals is an EU-funded project to increase young people’s interest in natural science and prevent shortage of specialists in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).

Marine Mammals is integrated into the “Science with and for society” work programme of the European Commission. The specific aim of the project is to increase young people’s participation and interest in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) by engaging them in motivating real-science experiences.

One of the aims of this project is to provide learning materials for school teachers and students which is developed by an international team of experts consisting of marine scientists, educational researchers and teachers. The materials will introduce scientific topics from current research questions as well as different research methods to students.

Often seen as ambassadors for oceans and still threatened by anthropogenic impacts such as noise and plastic pollution present in the oceans, marine mammals were chosen as key animals for this project.
