A multiplication of field missions!


The BlueSeeds team travelled extensively between April and June 2019 to strengthen our network of pilot sites and develop innovative technical solutions for conservation.
Among these, our trip to Cabras, Sardinia, enabled us to work with the Medsea Foundation and the MPA “Peninsola di Sinis – Mal di Ventre” teams on the mechanisms to be put in place to protect the Posidonia meadows, which are abundant in the area. Exchanges with fishermen’s cooperatives, yachtsmen’s associations and the town council’s services have enabled us to gain an exhaustive view of local pressures and issues and to calibrate BlueSeeds support as best as possible.
Our team went to Monastir in Tunisia to strengthen the financial planning skills of three assocations including Notre Grand Bleu, co-manager of the future marine and coastal protected area of the Kuriat Islands.
BlueSeeds launches a support program to help marine protected areas implement a visitor fee mechanism on their site in order to finance their conservation actions.
Our team has developed a practical guide featuring financing mechanisms for marine protected areas, including concrete step-by-step methodologies to implement them.
