==Mobilisation and Mutual Learning Workshops (MML)==
The Mobilization and Mutual Learning (MML) workshops constitute an integral element of the MARINA project that aims at federating communities in familiarizing with and adapting [[Responsible Research and Innovation]] (RRI) in the marine sector. The MML workshops engaged multidisciplinary groups of participants including citizens, NGOs and CSOs, students, researchers, business representatives, policy makers, experts in communication and other kind of
stakeholders in an attempt to identify actions and solutions towards current and emerging marine and societal challenges in the perspective of the [[Responsible Research and Innovation]]. In particular, the following eight marine challenges were addressed during the workshops:


==Background and Overview==
[[File:Marine_challenges.PNG]]
Despite significant progress achieved over the past decades, many educational settings still discriminate between learners, either because they come from a different cultural background (e.g. immigrants) or because they have different learning styles or face learning difficulties. Placing focus on combating poverty and social exclusion the e-Hoop project proposes a new conceptual framework of inclusion and proposes a unified way to address “differences”.  


The aim of the project is to create a universal, dynamic and adaptable e-Learning environment which educators can use, modify and expand, achieved through the development of an open-source experimental platform capable of hosting and delivering e-Learning material in the form of Learning Objects, which meet specifications that enable and facilitate the e-Hoop concept, namely the philosophy that all people are equal and have equal opportunities in learning. The platform will evaluate learning abilities on the basis of which it will deliver content to learners in ways they can learn best (i.e. auditory, visually). In this way differences (i.e. disabilities, dyslexia) can be eliminated. Structured Dialog engaging diverse stakeholders will be used to identify obstacles that prevent this, and agree on actions to promote the e-Hoop concept. The results will be used to derive the requirements for the platform and agree on a succession scheme in the partnership agreement for further exploitation.
The workshops:
* Engaged European societal actors in a multi-actor dialogue and in co-creating a participatory roadmap of actions for tackling the marine societal challenge and based on Responsible and Innovation principles;
* Started the process of federating Civil Society Organisations (CSOs), citizens, businesses, industry, research, policy-makers and communicators face-to-face and on-line;
* Set in motion inclusive mechanisms for sharing knowledge and best practice, building common understanding and co-creating solutions to marine societal challenges and based them on the principles of Responsible Research and Innovation;
* Facilitated federation of communities and networks on the MARINA digital platform.


The application of OSS tools will facilitate further development and long-term exploitation making it freely available to educators and learners.


==Objective==
==Geographical Coverage==
The e-Hoop is an online hub that promotes the advances of technology for lifelong learning. Its aim is to provide a flexible tool that can be tailored to the learner’s individual needs. Its unique adaptability allows users to insert their own learning material and use it according to their specific requirements. It is thus an innovative and practical application which fosters an inclusive learning environment by specifically targeting at socially and educationally disadvantaged groups.


The specific objectives for the universal learning environment are:
* Italy
* Portugal
* France
* Romania
* Cyprus
* Turkey
* Estonia
* Ireland
* Spain
* Denmark


<br> 1. To provide educators with an easy-to-use, open-source, dynamic, modifiable and expandable tool which they can adapt to their own learning materials and teaching requirements.
==MML workshops and Sustainable Development Goals==
<br> 2. To take full advantage of broadband technologies and open source paradigms.
The European Union’s response to the 2030 agenda of the United Nations Organisation is “The new European consensus on development of ‘our world, our dignity, our future” <ref> [https://ec.europa.eu/europeaid/sites/devco/files/european-consensus-on-development-final-20170626_en.pdf] “The new European consensus on development of ‘our world, our dignity, our future” </ref>. The document highlights that “the EU and its Member States will integrate the respect of human rights, democracy, the rule of law and gender equality into their political dialogue” and that “sustainable development requires a holistic and cross-sector policy approach and is ultimately an issue of governance which needs to be pursued in partnership with all stakeholders and on all levels” . Accordingly, the topics addressed at the MARINA workshops have been related to Sustainable Development Goals  such as:
<br> 3. To attract educators with innovative tools and paradigms.
<br> 4. To create a learning environment that will be fun for any learner.
<br> 5. To provide motivational tools for learning thus decreasing dropout rates.
<br> 6. To combine diagnostic with educational tools; therefore being able to adapt learning to the specific needs, background knowledge and cultural differences of the learners.
<br> 7. To provide an educational tool that is adaptable to the learning preferences and styles of the learner exploiting contemporary research and already developed tools.


==Dissemination==
* SD Goal 1: End poverty in all its forms everywhere;
* SD Goal 4: Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all;
* SD Goal 6: Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all;
* SD Goal 7: Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all;
* SD Goal 8: Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all;
* SD Goal 9: Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation;
* SD Goal 11: Make cities and human settlements safe, resilient and sustainable;
* SD Goal 12: Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns;
* SD Goal 13: Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts;
* SD Goal 14: Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources;
* SD Goal 17: Strengthen means of implementation and revitalise the global partnership for sustainable development.


The e-Hoop project not only foresees the immediate exploitation and valorisation of its ideas, products and results, but it also puts in place mechanisms and process to secure that the project’s impact will continue beyond its funded life time.


The main dissemination channels used by the dissemination plan are:

MML workshops and Sustainable Development Goals

The European Union’s response to the 2030 agenda of the United Nations Organisation is “The new European consensus on development of ‘our world, our dignity, our future” [1]. The document highlights that “the EU and its Member States will integrate the respect of human rights, democracy, the rule of law and gender equality into their political dialogue” and that “sustainable development requires a holistic and cross-sector policy approach and is ultimately an issue of governance which needs to be pursued in partnership with all stakeholders and on all levels” . Accordingly, the topics addressed at the MARINA workshops have been related to Sustainable Development Goals such as:

  • SD Goal 1: End poverty in all its forms everywhere;
