Learning from the Sea with ACeS: Water, Environment and Health – Citizens and Researchers in Dialogue

Through the contribution of the ACeS project partners, citizens will have the opportunity to gain first-hand insight into the project's activities and understand the importance of water protection and prevention through interactive spaces and educational activities designed to encourage direct dialogue between scientific research and local communities.

Through interactive activities and opportunities for discussion, the ACeS project brings research beyond the laboratory, showing how water quality, the marine environment and human health are closely interconnected.
