This project is a partnership garhering different structures : a secondary school « Likès La Salle », a high school « Likès La Salle”, a primary school named “ Notre Dame D’Izel Vor” all located in Brittany, South of Finistère, a marine biologist named Pierre Mollo, a school ( secondary and high school) from North of Ireland ( Belmullet), the “ redrose developpement manager” from Ireland, a higher school near the Wadden sea from Holland, a CCLA located near Aiguebelette lake in Savoie who is linked to the primary school from Attignant-Oncin and local associations. Those people are linked by the same priority : they are concerned and engaged in the subject of algae and plankton to feed the world in 2050. They meet together in March 2017 to make real the project for pupils and local communities. 8In 2050, there will be about 10 milliards of people on earth and it s relevant to ask ourselves how to feed all of then from now. The ocean is full of resources as algae or sometimes unknown and unvisible like plankton. Full of proteins and oligo elements they are interesting for food. We have to know how identify, observe because plankton is microscopic, how to classify it, to compare the different sorts from the different areas in the partenership, from Wadden sea, North Ireland sea, Atlantic sea, IAguebelette”s lake . Then we have to select the best algae and plankton for food, those which bring benefit to health ; in order to integrate it to day by day use, thanks to chiefs or cooks. Pupils and students from different ages and even adults will learn new ways of feeding and find out the marine ecosystem . They will understand how it’s important to protect it , because it’s fragile. It’s necessary people to become conscious of that, to preserve resources, develop uses of plankton and algae, link to ocean. Ocean is a common “ bien commun” It’s not the property of anyone but everyone is responsible of it. Preserving plankton for example implies also survey of species and others sepcies from the « alimentary chain » That’s why it’s a crucial outcome.
Notre Dame d'Izel Vor Primary School left the project very early in October 2018 and was replaced two months later by a new primary school. For partner changes, here are the following This strategic partnership project, which brings together different structures around the theme of "feeding people in 2050 with aquaculture resources", has been completed and beyond since it is still ongoing and will continue until at least 2020 thanks the final production of the two films broadcasted in the various European countries. On this occasion the partners from Holland, Ireland and France will meet again around the show proposed in Quimper from 13 to 17 January 2020. Teachers, students, families, business leaders, associations, biologists and local, regional and European institutions will be brought together again to experience this event. This highlight will promote and further disseminate the artistically produced film. Over the past two years, we have realized that the theme of our project was at the heart of global political concerns with the challenge of feeding 10 billion people in 2050 when one billion people are not getting enough to eat today. In addition to the technological and regulatory levers that make it possible to preserve and regulate resources, this Erasmus+ project focused on social and educational levers: raising consumer awareness about algae and plankton protein resources, while respecting the cultural specificities rooted in food. Aquaculture farms are spread over the territories and prove the new habits and cultures, especially in Brittany. Ancestral fishing practices perpetuate sustainable fishing in the Wadden Sea. The Irish, Dutch and French partners have succeeded in making the little-known and invisible resources visible through their activities over the two years and their final productions. This universal subject reaches a wide audience beyond the students of the project (from 7 to 21 years old) and adults supervising these young people, parents, families, members of educational teams and local communities have also been sensitized and involved in this vast project. In all, there were more than 1000 people involved in this project, whith the large communities of each partner city. Each of the European partners has built its journey from its own economic, cultural and local specificities and shared with others. After the setting up of the project initiated in March 2017 with Quimper's own funds, we ritually met during the various transnational meetings that marked the two years. These transnational meetings were profitable because they cemented the human partnership on strategic project times. This project questions the future on crucial and fundamental political issues such as fisheries resources for the future, around the topic : "the ocean: a common good?". As for the approach, which can be described as innovative, it combines very diversified structures such as schools, CCLA, companies and associations, with multidisciplinary modes such as territorial governance, management, commerce, sciences, chemistry, cooking, graphic arts, body and sound. The awareness of preserving the marine ecosystem has affected communities such as Belmullet through the final production of the Irish film, the film "Who are you?", the E-book, the plankton project website, etc. The site makes it possible to follow the partners' progress, activities and productions as well as their thoughts on the wealth of cultural exchanges made possible by Erasmus+. The pages have been translated in order to facilitate understanding and dissemination to as many people as possible. For now and in the future, an economic and trade partnership has been established between the Dutch and the Irish to market seaweed soap. A plankton observatory has been created in Savoie near the lake on the model of the Port-Louis observatory in Brittany under the leadership of Pierre Mollo. The Bretons shared with the Irish their knowledge and expertise in aquaculture species. They also made this specific knowledge accessible to the students of Ulis (local unit for the inclusion of young people with disabilities) who cooked plankton and seaweed with the chef of Le Likès. From now on, the project will be rebounded in the different structures in various forms. For example, it is recovered as part of a high school module or gives rise to a 5th grade project involving more than 200 students. An E. twinning project with the 5th is being created at Le Likès in the wake of the PHARE project, for example.
