BLUE CONNECT at European Maritime Day 2026

From 21-22 May 2026, BLUE CONNECT joined the MPA Community Network booth at the European Maritime Day in Limassol's old town. Alongside PHAROS, Blue4All, BioProtect, MSP4BIO and EFFECTIVE, it presented science-based tools and collaborative approaches for more effective Marine Protected Area planning and management. The booth also introduced the MPA-CN as a growing space for connecting MPA projects, managers, stakeholders and experts across Europe, helping share knowledge, reduce fragmentation and strengthen cooperation.
