Educational activities
Teaching experience

Design and implementation of a series of educational activities (online, in the class and on the beach) for primary school students under the framework of the Nautilos (H2020) project - Citizen Science actions focused on the plastic pollution of the oceans. Synergies were established with EU4Ocean, European Maritime Day - In My Country, World Ocean Day and European Marine Science Educators Association (EMSEA).

Participation in the national school project CONNECT within the framework of Synergies in the H2020 project Nautilos, through the support of two thematic sections: 1) Microplastics, the invisible threat, and 2) Climate change in the oceans.

Production of educational material (e-lessons) for Environmental Education (3rd EU Community Support Framework) for the Greek Education Research Centre.
