Biodiversity and Society
Connecting marine biodiversity with society, using the Oceanogràfic of the Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències as an educational platform.
Aquariums like the Oceanogràfic offer a unique opportunity to bring the aquatic world and its inhabitants closer to people. Our mission is to educate visitors and society, providing a perspective on biodiversity, its challenges, and the importance of its conservation.
This research program focuses on analyzing and evaluating how biodiversity influences society through various approaches.
We seek to understand the effectiveness and impact of the Oceanogràfic's educational programs, whether through content in the facilities or internal and external educational activities, among others. The ultimate goal is to facilitate the encounter between biodiversity and society to improve the understanding of the services that the former provides us and promote awareness about its protection.
