First meeting of the Platform for Cooperation of the Mediterranean FLAGs


BlueSeeds organized on the island of Syros in Greece the first working group on MPA and socio-economic development for the Mediterranean FLAGs (Fisheries Local Action Groups).
During 3 days, 4 FLAGs coming from Greece and Croatia exchanged on socio-economic development issues related to Marine Protected Areas. This platform will be a tool for sharing solutions that make conservation compatible with sustainable economic activities and local development.
The BlueSeeds team travelled extensively between April and June 2019 to strengthen our network of pilot sites and develop innovative technical solutions for conservation.
In the framework of the coordination of the Together for the Med network, BlueSeeds oversaw the creation of a platform featuring all the projects of the partners working to reduce fishing pressures in the Mediterranean.
During the FARNET event, Blueseeds discussed, alongside WWF, our project aiming to simplify Mediterranean small-scale fishers' access to European funds.
