Conferences

EMSEA Azores

EMSEA is well known for its annual conferences.

EMSEA conferences focus on small attendance lists, but big impact!  We choose small to medium venues to ensure that everyone gets the chance to meet each other.  Post conference evaluation of participants shows that real, life long connections are made between delegates and each conference has been the catalyst for a wide range of ocean literacy initiatives.

The EMSEA network is driven by the values of fun and inclusivity, and conferences are welcoming spaces for everyone, what ever their background.  As long as you are passionate about the ocean, you'll fit right in!
