The first session took place in Gij\u00f3n, Spain, and was hosted by consortium partner <a href=\"https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/es\/project-partners\/neoalgae\/\"><strong>Neoalgas<\/strong><\/a>, bringing the project\u2019s sustainability-focused outreach directly to young learners.<br><br><strong>Bringing IMPRESS Closer to Young Learners<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The inaugural educational visit welcomed <strong>17 students, aged 18 to 33, from a local Vocational Education and Training programme<\/strong> to Neoalgae\u2019s facilities. The session introduced participants to key themes connected to the IMPRESS project, including environmental sustainability, circular economy principles, microalgae cultivation, aquatic organisms, and the role of consumer behaviour in supporting environmental protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As part of the visit, <strong>students also learned about the products developed within the IMPRESS project<\/strong>, connecting the project\u2019s broader research work with practical examples of sustainable innovation. The activity provided an opportunity to translate IMPRESS concepts into accessible, real-world discussion for young consumers and future professionals.<br><br><strong>The First Step in a Wider Educational Programme<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This first educational event represents <strong>the beginning of a wider series of outreach activities<\/strong> under the IMPRESS framework. With five more educational sessions planned, the project will continue building awareness around sustainable practices, zero-waste value chains, and the role of aquatic resources in more responsible food and bio-based systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The launch of the educational activities in Spain <strong>reflects IMPRESS\u2019 broader mission <\/strong>to engage stakeholders and promote sustainable, circular approaches across marine and freshwater value chains. The project\u2019s overall vision includes addressing sustainability challenges in the marine and freshwater sectors, including the valorisation of processing waste streams and the promotion of underutilised low-trophic species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"607\" data-id=\"3320\" src=\"https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-2-1024x607.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-2-1024x607.png 1024w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-2-300x178.png 300w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-2-768x456.png 768w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-2-1536x911.png 1536w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-2-18x12.png 18w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-2.png 1947w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"3322\" src=\"https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-3-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3322\" srcset=\"https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-3-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-3-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-3-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-3-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-3-2048x1152.png 2048w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-microalgae-3-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"704\" src=\"https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-neoalgae-1024x704.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3321\" srcset=\"https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-neoalgae-1024x704.png 1024w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-neoalgae-300x206.png 300w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-neoalgae-768x528.png 768w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-neoalgae-1536x1056.png 1536w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-neoalgae-18x12.png 18w, https:\/\/impress-he.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMPRESS-neoalgae.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>______________<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Acerca de IMPRESS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IMPRESS es una iniciativa de investigaci\u00f3n financiada por Horizon Europe dedicada a promover la producci\u00f3n sostenible de alimentos a partir de fuentes marinas y de agua dulce.
