Future Lives with Oceans and Waters (FLOW), funded by the European Union under the Horizon Europe Research and Innovation Programme, is a two-year project coordinated by Radboud University. The partners are UiT The Arctic University of Norway, Fraunhofer Institute for Systems and Innovation Research ISI from Germany, and Volonteurope, which is the civil society partner in this Horizon project. FLOW project aims to increase understanding of the connection that youths have with oceans, seas and waters. Moreover, by combining transdisciplinary methods-horizon scanning, ethnographic fieldwork, and experiential futures workshop-in an innovative way, FLOW engages youths in intergenerational and transdisciplinary research. More information can be found on the project’s website, flowhorizon.eu!
Throughout the FLOW project, 7 workshops will be organised by Volonteurope network & project partners, in 7 different geographic regions of Europe with approx. 25 young people attending each of them. All expenses, travel costs and accommodation for the youths that will attend will be covered through the project.
Besides, we will select 14 young people for our Youth Advisory Board, 2 per region, advising us throughout the project and overseeing the project’s work, and these young people will have the chance to meet each other and attend the workshops in different regions. To establish the Youth Advisory Board, we will soon make an open call on the project’s social media accounts to invite young people from different regions to be part of it. Therefore, it would be so nice to have you following us on different social media channels and thinking of possible candidates to put forward. You can find these channels right below.
