The Triton project Summer School “Sustainable management of coastal heritage and actions to mitigate coastal erosion” is a high-level cross-border course, aimed at improving the skills of public administration staff and technicians involved in coastal management and mitigation actions to erosive phenomena.
The Summer School is articulated in six days divided in two modules, one to be held in Western Greece and one in Puglia.
a) The Western Greece module includes 2 days of lessons at the Museum of Science and Technology of University of Patras and a study visit to the Patraikos gulf (which is affected by relevant erosion phenomena), respectively on September 24, 25 and 26, 2019.
