Does living by the coast actually make us healthie Does living by the coast actually make us healthier? ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿค”

Today, the @universidadcatolicavalencia has been going truly global hosting @sterios_dog , who joined them all the way from the @agricultural_university_athens to reveal the findings of his latest study on healthy habits and coastal living.

This interesting research came to life after Asterios and his team won the EU-CONEXUS Student Project contest. ๐Ÿ†

It was a good session exploring how our environment shapes our wellbeing as citizens. A massive thank you to Asterios and his team for bringing their world-class insights right to our doorstep! ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒ

๐ŸŽค This yearโ€™s keynote speaker was Susana Costas from @ualg_universidadedoalgarve , who participated with support from EU-CONEXUS funding, sharing valuable insights into coastal morphodynamics research.

๐ŸŒŠ Coast2Coast Project: key insights

๐Ÿ“ Launched in 2024 during the Ocean Decade Conference in Barcelona, Coast2Coast was created to connect and support early-career coastal scientists.

๐ŸŒ In just two years, it has grown from 3 to 6 
participating institutions, becoming a key national platform for collaboration and networking.

๐Ÿ’ก It fosters interdisciplinary collaboration, strengthens research networks, and highlights the importance of young scientific talent in shaping the future of our coasts.
