Earlier this year, Natalia Reen, Senior Researcher at Åbo Akademi University (Finland), spent three months as a visiting researcher at the La Spezia Campus of the University of Genoa (UniGe). Her research focuses on sustainability and digitalisation, and during her stay, she was actively involved in the activities of the LeaderSHIP4Skills project.

Reen contributed to the development of several curricula and delivered two courses:

  • An in-person course for PhD students at the Centro del Mare, titled “Methodology for Green Transition in the Maritime Industry”, which explored strategies and methodologies for advancing sustainability in maritime contexts.
  • An online course on IoT Applications in Shipyards, highlighting the role of digital technologies in modernising shipbuilding processes.

In addition, she offered two pilot courses:

  • A half-day seminar on the green transition in the maritime industry.
  • A comprehensive eight-hour course on the application of the Internet of Things (IoT) in maritime settings.

Recordings of both pilot courses are now available on UniGe’s YouTube channel:
