The European AGEO project wins two prizes at the REGIOSTARS Awards 2025

The European AGEO project, funded by the Interreg Atlantic programme of the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and in which UBO participated through the OSIRISC Integrated Coastal Risk Observatory and the Litto’Risques partnership (Finistère Department, UBO, Cerema), won two awards at the prestigious REGIOSTARS Awards 2025 on Wednesday 15 October 2025: the ‘Green Europe’ award and the public award.

AGEO brings together scientists, local communities and policy makers in a platform for issuing alerts, receiving information on events and educational content on geological risks in Atlantic regions, and helps to protect European citizens against risk scenarios such as landslides, seismic activity, flooding and coastal erosion. At the heart of this project, the OSIRISC-Litto’Risques observatory in Finistère played a major role as a pilot for coastal erosion and marine submersion risks.

“This is a wonderful reward for the Litto’Risques partnership and for the OSIRISC observatory, for all the work we are doing together, researchers and coastal risk management stakeholders (technicians, elected officials, government departments), on developing long-term observation capabilities, sharing expertise and raising awareness. And it shows the real interest, beyond the borders of Brittany, in the original collaborative approach implemented in this project to meet the challenges of adapting to global changes at the regional level. The whole team is very proud of this recognition.”
