UNED Torrevieja has launched an inspiring science outreach project in partnership with the René Quinton Foundation, targeting primary school children in the coastal city. Sixth-grade pupils at CEIP El Acequión and CEIP Ciudad del Mar are taking part in hands-on workshops through which they earn the title of ‘Guardianes del Océano’ — Guardians of the Ocean. The project aims to introduce young learners to marine sciences and the importance of ocean ecosystems in an engaging and accessible way. Torrevieja, situated on the Mediterranean coast and renowned for its salt lakes, provides a fitting natural backdrop for this kind of environmental education. Initiatives like this strengthen the connection between the local community and the unique natural environment that surrounds it.
