Marine Knowledge: All for one and one for all in Brussels, Belgium
11 October 2012 - 12 October 2012
Austria
What are the European initiatives and organizations doing to meet the requirements of the European maritime policy and to face the challenge of marine data accessibility?
In this period of financial crisis it is crucial to avoid duplicate efforts and use public money more wisely. This is why the iMarine initiative (www.i-marine.eu) together with some of the major marine-related initiatives in Europe has leveraged its network of contacts and co-organised the meeting “Marine Knowledge: All projects meeting”. The meeting has been held on the 11 – 12 October 2012 in Brussels, Belgium.
The overarching objective of the meeting was to present the activities carried out by each project and their achievements in order to share common future guidelines and drive forward joint efforts. Next steps will be focused on coordinated and concrete efforts in terms of e-infrastructures interoperability, joint training initiatives and support of marine communities emerging needs.
