AN EDUCATIONAL COMPETITION FOR SECONDARY SCHOOLS: BRINGING YOUNG PEOPLE CLOSER TO THE SEA
For the 2022-2023 school year, the Oceanographic Institute is launching an educational competition aimed at secondary schools in France, Monaco and other French-speaking countries, designed to forge a strong link between young people and the sea, by helping classes to discover the marine world and implement a project to protect the Ocean.
