EUNICoast
European University Alliance EUNICoast: The European University of Islands, Ports and Coastal Territories.
- Duration: 48 Months (Nov 2024 - Nov 2028)

The mission of our Alliance
Anchored to the sea in spirit and practice, our European Alliance seeks to awaken an appreciation for the maritime world’s significance. For us, the sea is not a physical boundary, but a conduit of shared experiences, economic prosperity, and ecological balance. By instilling a deep-rooted connection to the sea, we empower our students to engage meaningfully with both ports and islands, and the intricate interplay between them.
Alliance objectives
Our focus on islands and ports is thus far more than just a symbol. It emphasises the way in which universities are places for deep thinking, thoughtfulness, experimentation and creativity. It underlines the importance of our role in creating meaningful connections and communication between our territories and our communities.
Help build strong foundations for the next generation of European and global students and citizens who are engaged, aware, and willing to contribute to meeting sustainability challenges.
Foster a multicultural, multilingual, and inclusive European education, research, and innovation environment which is open to the world.
Enhance the joint capacity of the partner universities to better respond to the societal and environmental challenges faced by island and coastal communities.
