In an archipelago whose identity and economy are intrinsically linked to the sea, understanding and protecting marine ecosystems is of paramount importance. This competition is not just a contest; it is a platform for learning, innovation, and action, designed to inspire secondary school students to become vocal and effective advocates for the health of our vast oceans. Through participation, students will have the opportunity to explore critical issues such as plastic pollution, climate change, overfishing, and marine biodiversity, developing a deeper awareness and a lasting commitment to environmental stewardship.<\/p>\n<p>For young Cape Verdeans, this competition opens doors to the development of essential skills, from research and problem-solving to communication and teamwork. By being encouraged to investigate specific environmental challenges in Cape Verde and propose innovative solutions, students not only deepen their knowledge of the local marine environment but also exercise their creativity and entrepreneurial spirit. Presenting projects, whether through articles, videos, art, or other forms of creative expression, allows them to articulate their findings and calls to action in an engaging and impactful way.
