AquaVitae training activities includes exchanges abroad for the students. Last summer Mayleen Schlund took part in one of them. She travelled to Faroe Islands where she made an internship in the research station Fiskaaling. The student exchange within the project framework allows the participants to expand their international networks and develop valuable transversal skills.
