🌊 Introducing 'Il Mare a Scuola' – a campaign for ocean literacy 🌊 The MSC Foundation is proud to strengthen its long-term partnership with Marevivo by supporting 'Il Mare a Scuola,' a campaign aimed at making ocean literacy a core part of the curriculum in primary and secondary schools. With the ocean generating over 50% of the oxygen we breathe, raising awareness and inspiring future generations to protect this invaluable resource is essential. By integrating ocean studies into mainstream education, we can nurture a culture of respect and sustainable practices for our marine environment. The campaign kicks off on 21st October 2024 aboard the historic Motonave Patrizia, visiting Naples, Palermo, Livorno, and Genoa, and engaging students, educators, and policymakers along the way. Together, we aim to create a future where caringe for our oceans is central to education. #MSC #MSCFoundation #MSCGroup #marineconservation #education #oceanliteracy

We are proud to present Marine Encounters, an exclusive exhibition on board EXPLORA II featuring the extraordinary marine photography of Hussain Aga Khan. In collaboration with Focused on Nature, this collection of 28 limited-edition photographs invites guests to experience the beauty and diversity of our oceans while raising awareness of the critical need to protect them. Generously donated to the MSC Foundation, these photographs go beyond art. All proceeds from sales will directly fund marine science scholarships at the University of The Bahamas, fostering the next generation of ocean conservation leaders. This exhibition is a powerful reflection of our commitment to environmental education, and we are honoured to join forces with Hussain Aga Khan and Focused on Nature to inspire action and create tangible change. Together, we’re protecting our Blue Planet for future generations.

Rooted in a proud history of seafaring, the MSC Foundation carries forward a legacy of protecting the oceans that are central to our journey. That’s why our paper boat logo is a symbol of this commitment: not only does it represent the entire MSC Group, but also our love for the sea. The origami design reflects the fragility of marine life and the oceans that sustain it, highlighting the importance of safeguarding these resources for future generations. As a family seafaring company, we look to the future with the same care we extend to our children and grandchildren. Through collaboration with trusted partners and our sister companies in the MSC Group, we are charting a course towards a more sustainable world. #MSC #MSCFoundation #MSCGroup #MSCFamily

So proud to be supporting the "Social Purpose for Solar Revamping" project, making a difference for the Dynamo Camp community. Thank you for having us and allowing us to witness this momentous achievement! ERG SpA
Ieri a Dynamo Camp è stato inaugurato il progetto realizzato e supportato da ERG SpA “Social Purpose for Solar Revamping”. Da oggi il Camp ha un elemento di sostenibilità in più: grazie al riuso di pannelli solari rigenerati, è stato installato un impianto solare da 84 kWp, che contribuirà a coprire parte del fabbisogno energetico della nostra struttura. L’impianto favorisce l'uso di energia “green” e include anche sei colonnine per la ricarica di veicoli elettrici, promuovendo la mobilità sostenibile. Questo è un passo importante per ridurre l’impatto e offrire ai nostri ospiti un ambiente ancora più focalizzato sul loro benessere e sulla qualità della loro esperienza. Alla cerimonia hanno partecipato, tra gli altri, Alessandro Garrone, Vicepresidente Esecutivo di ERG SpA, Sandra Romagnani, Presidente del Consiglio Comunale di San Marcello Piteglio, Serena Porcari, Amministratore Delegato di Fondazione Dynamo Camp, e Daniela Picco, Executive Director di MSC Foundation. Un ringraziamento speciale ai partner che hanno reso possibile questo progetto innovativo.
