Your research project has produced results that matter — and you need them to reach funders, policymakers, and the public, alongside the academic audience it already reaches.
Translating scientific work for non-specialist audiences is a distinct skill set, separate from producing the research itself. Thalassa manages the full communication cycle — the website, the dissemination, the workshops and interviews — so your research reaches its academic audience and the funders, policymakers, and public who need it too, with the scientific accuracy intact.
Working alongside research teams and institutions as a scientific and editorial partner, Thalassa brings the same standards of accuracy and rigour to communication outputs that the underlying research demands. The results hold up to scrutiny, and reach beyond the institution to the people who need them.
Your NGO has the commitment and the community to run a citizen science programme.
Scientific design — protocols, data quality standards, a pathway to peer-reviewed publication — is the piece Thalassa adds to it. From proposal writing and field surveys to data analysis and scientific writing — Thalassa manages the full research cycle.
Developing and coordinating citizen science projects with robust volunteer coordination, Thalassa collaborates with NGOs and civil society to collect data rigorous enough for peer review — open science that contributes directly to growing scientific knowledge.
Your consortium is applying for European funding — Horizon Europe, Interreg, LIFE, and similar programmes — or you need independent scientific analysis on a specific research question, not necessarily on marine science data.
That work calls for a partner who combines scientific expertise with communication and outreach capacity.
Thalassa joins as an independent scientific partner — joining a consortium as a contributing scientist, or taking on a research question directly — delivering the analysis and report it needs, and ensuring the outputs reach the audiences your funder requires.
Fields of expertise: Marine ecology, Plastic pollution, Climate change, Marine Protected Areas, Mediterranean Sea, Southern Ocean, Ocean literacy, Citizen science.
Thalassa operates fully in English, Italian, and French — covering three of the principal languages of international scientific publication, Mediterranean ocean science, and EU environmental policy.
That is the work every project here is part of. The best next step is a conversation about yours.
