Blue Generation Project during the pandemic of Covid-19 reached thousands of young people across Europe and managed to find new ways to connect with and inform them about the training and employment opportunities in the Blue Economy sectors.

So far, Blue Generation Project has attracted more than 17,000 youth NEETs to the Blue Economy through promotional visits organized at 273 organizations (high-schools, universities, VET schools, NGOs, and local communities) in Bulgaria, Greece Poland, Portugal and Spain.

Although many of our promotional visits were held remotely due to the Covid-19 restrictions, Blue Generation team engaged thousands of youngsters who participated with great interest and posed questions and comments. Moreover, the Project gave the opportunity to many young people from remote rural and insular areas to participate and benefit from the information and networking with other youth from different locations.

At the same time we released a free webinar that is available at the Blue Generation Project Facebook page of the project. This webinar presents each sector of the Blue Economy and the job and the educational opportunities that exist at these sectors. The Blue Economy webinar is free and participants can complete it at their own pace. Additionally, the youngsters who are interested in learning more about the Blue Economy are prompted to register on the Blue Careers Platform and find out training and employment opportunities in the Blue Economy across Europe.

We also created a 360o  VR Video in Aquaculture that gives youth NEETs the chance to e-xperience the real work life in Aquaculture, the fastest growing food sector worldwide. More 360VR Videos are under development in the other sectors of the Blue Economy.
