Today, Barcelona’s coastal ecosystem is in a state of vulnerability due to the pressure of urban activity and climate change (Harley et al., 2006). Furthermore, the the pressure of tourism during the last decade has reduced the possibility that the citizen be fully aware of the health and emotional values of its marine environment. In order to help revert this situation, we have design AULAMAR, a real oceanographic research project for the youngest generations. AULAMAR is a science education project for high school students in the framework of citizen science, willing to offer tools to better understand the city’s coastline and encourage critical reflection. AULAMAR is the continuation of the successful experience of the Patí Científic, a citizen science project (Oritgosa et al., 2022) where sensor prototypes were developed and installed in sustainable boats or other recreational sailing devices (i.e., rowing, surfing kayaking). In the frame of AULAMAR, high school pupils will build seawater monitoring low cost instruments during educational workshops, in particular temperature-depth profilers, bathymetric probes, multi-parametric fixed stations and micro-plastics tow nets. The participating schools will have the possibilities to make their own instruments and take the measurements, which will be available on an open database. In this way, schools will be able to actively participate towards a better knowledge of the health of their coastal environment. The measurements and other activities, such as workshops, are expected to increase the awareness of non-specialized public about the interaction between coastal cities and marine ecosystems. Moreover, these oceanographic instruments will help increase the amount of physical variables measured through sustainable boats and devices. We will present the first results already achieved with different scholar groups AULAMAR (Fundació Bit Habitat, ref. ID253). The ICM authors also recognize the institutional support of the Spanish Government through the Severo Ochoa Center of Excellence accreditation (CEX2019-000928-S).
