Specifically, it will be possible to share knowledge related to climate change and how it affects the Mediterranean area, which hosts a wide biodiversity currently affected by changes in our coasts (such as the deterioration of the Mar Menor). Moreover, the European Corner workshop will give visibility to different European projects carried out at the University of Murcia, such as Marie Curie, Life or ITN.

It should be noted that the event will include a full program that will cover all the disciplines of knowledge related to Mediterranean Science in which the University of Murcia works such as archeology, food science, agrarian science, economics, ancient and modern languages, biology, geology, energy, medicine, nursing, nutrition, etc.
