Science Year 2016*17: Seas and Oceans

Madeleine Ammar (r.) Is the freshly appointed coordinator of the dissemination project „Einmal zum Meer und zurück: auf Wanderschaft mit Stör, Lachs & Co“. In the german science year 2016/17 - seas and oceans - children and young people are inspired for valuable waters by new formats of knowledge transfer.

"The waters of our streams and rivers flow sooner or later into the sea. Just as migrate animals change between fresh and salt water. This is why sea protection begins at the source, "explains Ammar. The focus of the project is on participatory actions, such as the exposure of young sturgeons. Dr. Jörn Gessner (l.) undertakes the scientific project management.
