Aquariums as Tools for Education and Environmental Awareness at the Maritime Museum of Ílhavo
On January 11, the Maritime Museum of Ílhavo will celebrate the 12th anniversary of the Museum’s Aquarium, a space dedicated to the preservation and enhancement of maritime heritage and environmental education. To mark the occasion, the museum will host the “Aquariums and Blue Citizenship” Conference, an event highlighting the role of aquariums in promoting environmental awareness and raising public consciousness about the vital importance of oceans.
The event will feature three moderators from CESAM (Centre for Environmental and Marine Studies), who will provide insights and lead discussions on the role of aquariums as educational tools and as promoters of sustainability and blue citizenship. The conference aims to engage the public and foster dialogue about the conservation of marine ecosystems and the responsibility of each individual in protecting the oceans.
