UNU-CRIS is a Partner in the GlobalSeaweedSTAR Finale
This online event will showcase the impact and legacy of this unique 4-year programme funded by UKRI.

The programme has addressed key challenges faced by the industry and provided practical solutions to them, while also growing the research and innovation capacity of developing countries engaged in seaweed farming.
