This exciting competition invites pupils to think creatively and critically about sustainability and innovation in coastal urban environments — the very essence of Smart Urban Coastal Sustainability #SmUCS. Here are just a few reasons why your participation matters: 🔹The contest aims to raise awareness among pupils about sustainability, coastal and urban ecosystems, and circular economy principles, while strengthening their sense of responsibility toward the environment. 🔹It serves as a bridge between secondary education and university life, encouraging pupils to explore STEM disciplines (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) and potential career paths related to them. 🔹Participants gain valuable educational and personal benefits — critical thinking, creativity, teamwork, public speaking, and international communication skills — as well as a deeper understanding of entrepreneurship, innovation, and civic engagement. 🔹 For teachers, the contest is an opportunity to collaborate across disciplines, develop project management skills, and engage with innovative teaching methods in connection with the EU-CONEXUS Alliance’s broader academic and research initiatives. 🔹The competition theme — circular economy, environmental sustainability, and innovative solutions for coastal-urban communities — challenges students to turn their ideas into tangible contributions for a greener future. 🌍 By taking part in “Think Smart, Create Green,” pupils and teachers become active contributors to the transformation toward a sustainable society. 🗓 Deadline for registration: 28 November 2025 Don’t miss this opportunity!

⛴️ EU-CONEXUS Minor students explore energy tr ⛴️ EU-CONEXUS Minor students explore energy transition in shipping at @klaipedauniversity This week Klaipeda University hosted students of the EU-CONEXUS Minor in “Energy Transition in Shipping: LNG” programme. Throughout the week, participants explored how innovation and sustainability shape the maritime industry — from lectures on energy transition to practical insights during visits to Klaipeda Seaport Authority and KN Energies. 👋 At KN Energies, students were welcomed by Martynas Ambrozaitis, Head of FSRU “Independence” Operations, who introduced the company’s LNG activities and led an insightful tour of the Small-Scale LNG Terminal. The programme, coordinated by Prof. Vytautas Paulauskas (KU), combined academic learning with hands-on experiences and cultural exchange — highlighting how collaboration between universities and industry fosters a more sustainable maritime future. Here are a few moments from this inspiring week! #euconexus #europeauniversities #minorstudy #studies #students #internationalstudentlife #internationalstudies

“Yes – the Baltic Sea is sick. But painkillers “Yes – the Baltic Sea is sick. But painkillers won’t heal it,” says Sergej Suzdalev, senior researcher at @klaipedauniversity Marine Research Institute. 🐟🧫 We’ve all heard of microplastics in our seas by now, but research shows we have much more coming. Sergej is focusing on one such issue – invisible pollution caused by the residue of painkillers. Used for everything from minor headaches to chronic pain, painkillers leave a trace not just in seawater but also in the fish that feed the local communities. What if we could create change, together❓ Learn more on the “news” section of our website 👆 #euconexus #europeanuniversities #painkillers #sea #marineresearch #research #science #microplastics
