Valuing Italy’s marine environment: connecting interests for conservation
Worldrise, an Italian NGO founded and run by young professionals, has designed and developed the Full Immersion Cinque Terre project to encourage the appreciation of the Cinque Terre MPA environmental values while empowering professionally marine science students. The project, entirely coordinated by Worldrise, established a partnership between the MPA management authority, the diving centres that operate in the MPA and the University of Genova.
