EMD In My Country is a key part of the wave of ocean awareness and activism that has been rising steadily in recent years: the events under its brand have become more and more popular, attracting more thousands of participants every year. Local activities such as beach clean ups, guided tours of ports, art exhibitions, workshops, conferences, seminars, exhibitions on maritime themes, ocean literacy actions, eco-tours and walks in areas with significant maritime heritage, boat excursions, visits to maritime museums, ships, aquaria, shipyards etc. aim to a wide audience across Europe, with a « fun and game » component directly appealing to a younger public.

How will the event be promoted?

By registering your event, it will be prominently featured on the European Maritime Day website through an interactive map. Event organisers will also receive a communication package (visuals) and social media material to help them disseminate their event(s), as well as a certificate of participation from the European Commission.
