A new project is exploring the options for making fish products from small-scale fishers of the Mediterranean more visible to the consumers in the markets. The project at the interface of science and policy will propose concrete policy measures to transfer the existing knowledge on the environmental, economic, social and cultural benefits of small-scale fisheries. The empowerment of small-scale fisheries builds on the commitment to blue growth in the Mediterranean.

The project is coordinated by Dr. Jerneja Penca under the BlueMed Start-up Action call in is supported by NIB, partner in Bluemed Initiative.
