Overview

SOLIDMAR — Solidarity Shores

SOLIDMAR (Solidarity Shores) is an EU-funded European Solidarity Corps project that brings together young volunteers, coastal communities, fishers, shellfish gatherers and local organisations to tackle the environmental and social challenges affecting marine ecosystems.

Through volunteering, community participation, environmental education and collaboration with local actors, the project promotes marine conservation, climate resilience, sustainable fishing and circular-economy solutions for marine waste — while preserving the traditional knowledge of fishing communities. IAFA takes part as a partner organisation, connecting Portuguese volunteers to the project.

Funding: European Solidarity Corps, co-funded by the EU
