Two years after our first intervention and one Blue Local Incubator later, we are happy to be back in Lastovo’s marine protected area in Croatia!
The goal? To strengthen the local partnership, to present the results of this first BLI, and to advance on the next steps.
As a reminder, the Blue Local Incubator aims at helping 7 microenterprises to develop: eco-tourism, recycling, olive oil production, pescatourism, electric bike rental, wine tourism. We are convinced that local entrepreneurship can be a lever to involve the residents of Lastovo in marine conservation.
The same jury that selected the incubated projects a few months ago met in Lastovo: WWF Adria, the Cooperative for Ethical Financing (ZEF), Fundación Capital, Lastovo Nature Park, the municipality, and the BlueSeeds team.
The BlueSeeds team went to the island of Lastovo in Croatia to work with the WWF Adria team on the development of a Small-Scale Fishery (SSF) project.
BlueSeeds was invited by the Notre Grand Bleu assocation to talk about its activities on a Tunisian radio station.
At the Université Côte d'Azur, BlueSeeds trained future graduates of the Msc MARRES (Marine Resource Science, Conservation & Innovation) on marine conservation finance during a one-week bootcamp.
