CHAPTER 4 Responsible management

SPAIN

Energy Campus Area: Scientific-educational Beneficiaries: Children and young people Description: Educational programme whose objective is to bring the world of energy to the educational centres of the provinces of Huelva, Cádiz and the island of Tenerife. Through different training units taught in the classroom and by means of a digital plat- form, students learn about the importance in their daily lives of the different applica- tions derived from oil, environmental protection or safety in processes and facilities. In addition, students can visit the facilities of the three refineries and take part in an envi- ronmental interpretation workshop in the natural spaces of the Laguna Primera de Pa- los or the Madrevieja Environmental Station, in the cases of Huelva and Cadiz, as well as participate in a free format creative competition with energy as the main theme.

Fundación Cepsa Chairs Area: Scientific-educational Beneficiaries: General public and young people Description: Every year, we promote different activities within our five Fundación Cep- sa university Chairs. Through our Chair at the Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingenieros de Minas y Energía in Madrid, we seek to promote training in matters related to the environment and energy. The Universidad de Cádiz Chair is focused on the employa- bility of the university community in scientific and technological areas. For its part, the Universidad de Huelva Chair is firmly committed to entrepreneurship, and the Univer- sidad de la Laguna Chair focuses on research, training and dissemination in the areas of innovation and energy efficiency. Lastly, the Universidad de Sevilla Chair promotes the connection between teaching activities and the reality of the industrial base of the energy sector.

Study of Invasive Seaweed (San Roque) Area: Environmental Beneficiaries: General public and the scientific community Description: In association with the Research Foundation of Universidad de Sevilla, we launched a project to analyse the ecological problems caused by the expansion and settlement of the invasive seaweed of Asian origin, Rugulopteryx okamurae, in the wa- ters of the Bay of Algeciras and the Strait of Gibraltar. With a duration of four years, this study aims to address the strengths and weaknesses of this marine species, as well as different tools to control its evolution.

Canary Islands Music Festival Area: Cultural Beneficiaries: General public Description: We have collaborated in the 35th International Music Festival of the Ca- nary Islands (IMFC), organised by the Canary Islands Autonomous Community Govern- ment, in order to promote culture and tourism on the islands. In addition to our involve- ment in this event of classical music concerts distributed among the eight islands, we have promoted the holding of introductory educational talks with the sole purpose of familiarising the audience with the musical pieces and their performers.
