The Mission Ocean and Waters, an integral part of the Horizon Europe framework, is advancing the restoration and preservation of our marine and freshwater resources through innovative, collaborative efforts. Central to this initiative is the implementation of strategic actions and coordination among funded projects, as overseen by the Mission Implementation Platform (MIP Ocean).
SUNBIO is proud to be a part of Horizon Europe’s Mission Ocean and Waters, an initiative dedicated to restoring and safeguarding our aquatic environments. As a participant in this mission, SUNBIO aims to collaborate and to build synergies with other leading projects to share knowledge and develop innovative solutions.
To facilitate effective communication and collaboration among the diverse projects under its umbrella, the Mission Ocean has established the Mission Ocean Communication Collaborative. This online forum allows project representatives to discuss common goals, challenges, advancements and sharing event news, while encouraging the actively engage through monthly meetings and contribute to the ongoing dialogue that shapes overarching communication strategies.
The Mission Ocean has implemented a Monitoring Dashboard, which is essential for tracking the progress and successes of the mission’s objectives. This dashboard is an invaluable tool for the projects to assess their impact and align their strategies with the mission’s overarching goals.
SUNBIO’s involvement in Mission Ocean exemplifies the collaborative spirit that Horizon Europe fosters to tackle some of the most pressing environmental challenges. By leveraging shared resources, knowledge, and platforms, SUNBIO is positioned to make significant contributions to protect marine biodiversity while expanding offshore renewable energy capacity, ultimately benefiting ecosystems and communities globally.
