🍤 Fried fish, seaweed salad, shrimp risotto – 🍤 Fried fish, seaweed salad, shrimp risotto – we love dishes that come from the sea. What if the secret to better seafood isn’t in how we cook it – but in how we feed it? 🐡 At the Agricultural University of Athens (AUA), researchers are rethinking traditional fish feed. Instead of fishmeal and fish oil, they’re turning to natural alternatives like microalgae, pigment-producing yeasts, and fungi to make aquaculture both healthier and more sustainable. 🐟🐠 Their innovative approach could redefine how we nourish fish (and, ultimately, ourselves). 🔗 Curious to know more?

European University Alliances – A State-of-Play European University Alliances – A State-of-Play 🇪🇺 UTCB’s Erasmus+ Institutional Coordinator Ramona Diac (@ramonadiac ) represented UTCB and EU-CONEXUS on the panel “European University Alliances – A State-of-Play,” part of the Erasmus+ Higher Education Seminar (21–22 October 2025). The event was organised by the Romanian National Agency for Community Programs in the Field of Education and Vocational Training at the Central Library of the National University of Science and Technology Politehnica Bucharest. Please find below Ramona’s testimonial 👇 “Together with colleagues from CIVIS, EURECA-PRO, and EUDRES, we discussed how European alliances are transforming higher education, the synergies with the Erasmus+ programme, and the day-to-day challenges of inter-institutional collaboration. For @utcbro , belonging to EU-CONEXUS means: 🌍 a strategic framework for European cooperation that connects the university to an interdisciplinary network dedicated to urban and coastal sustainability; 🤝 a driver of institutional innovation that fosters collaboration across faculties, offices, and international teams; 🎓 a platform for professional and curricular development, where mobilities, micro-credentials, and BIPs become real instruments for learning and transformation; 📚 and, not least, European visibility for UTCB students, academic staff, and administrative personnel. Our thanks to the ANPCDEFP team for the invitation and the professional forum for dialogue, as well as to colleagues from the participating alliances for their openness and the ideas shared.” #ErasmusPlus #EUCONEXUS #UTCB #EuropeanUniversities #HigherEducation #Internationalisation #Sustainability #Mobility #Cooperation
🌍 Day 3 — the final day of the EU-CONEXUS Res 🌍 Day 3 — the final day of the EU-CONEXUS Research Conference 2025 — marked an inspiring finale to three days of transformative discussions on Urban Coastal Sustainability. 💶 The morning began with Round Table 5: Sustainable Economic Models, where experts from across Europe explored innovative approaches to building resilient, fair, and future-oriented economies. Speakers shared valuable insights into how sustainable business and research can drive systemic change. ☕🎓 A well-deserved coffee break set the stage for the Closing Ceremony, moderated by Dr José María Tormos Muñoz (UCV) and Dr Zvjezdan Penezic (UNIZD). The session concluded with an inspiring keynote by renowned economist Dr Stefano Zamagni (University of Bologna), who delivered a thought-provoking reflection on the moral and economic dimensions of sustainability — a truly fitting way to close the conference. 🏆 Afterwards, the Poster Awards celebrated outstanding research contributions from our alliance’s scholars. 🥘 The conference concluded with a warm farewell lunch, featuring an authentic tasting of Valencian paella — a perfect ending to days filled with collaboration and community spirit. ✨ Many thanks to everyone in @universidadcatolicavalencia who made this conference possible. It has been truly inspiring! See you in @agricultural_university_athens next year. #EUCONEXUS #Sustainability #ResearchConference2025 #TransformativeResearch #UCVinternational #europeanuniversities
