Responsible and Sustainable Research Reflection Tool for Ocean and Waters

WaveLinks has launched new visualizations displaying results from the Responsible and Sustainable Research Reflection Tool, a self-assessment survey for ocean and water researchers. The visualizations—including a spider chart, boxplot, and histogram—illustrate how projects align with Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI), SDGs, Open Science, and Social Impact. Developed with BlueMissionAA, the tool helps researchers evaluate their work and identify opportunities for improvement.

We are excited to announce that the BlueMissionAA catalogue has been updated

The catalogue now features 250 innovative solutions, following the addition of 121 new entries carefully selected by the BlueMissionAA team. These new solutions span a wide range of innovative technologies and approaches. Each has been evaluated for its technical readiness, societal impact, and practical applicability, providing researchers, policy-makers, and industry stakeholders with actionable tools to support sustainable ocean management. We also encourage innovators and solution providers who develop innovative solutions that contribute to ocean restoration and presenvation, submit their products and join the BlueMissionAA Catalogue of Solutions and Services. Your contribution can help accelerate the adoption of impactful technologies across the blue economy!
