Our annual report offers readers a glimpse of Ecsite activities: our Annual Conference and Directors Forum, the activites of our Thematic Groups, the collaborative projects we take part in, our international actions and governance, etc.

The 2017 Ecsite Annual Report is called "Rising tide". As Past Ecsite President Michiel Buchel writes in his introduction: "I am convinced that cross-country collaborations have a key role to play in preserving the planet. The Sea Change project that gave its theme to this annual report is a powerful example of this, raising ocean literacy all over Europe – even in land-locked countries."
