Projects

DIGI-FISH is a Horizon Europe project accelerating the digital and energy transition of Mediterranean fisheries and aquaculture. It validates AI-enabled solutions, from smart feeding (SICA-SAVEFEED) and energy management to carbon monitoring and decision support, across five real-world use cases, linked by a Federated Data Space to deliver auditable evidence of environmental and economic benefits.

The EU Aquaculture Assistance Mechanism (AAM) supports Member States, the aquaculture industry and other stakeholders in implementing the 2021-2030 Strategic Guidelines for a more sustainable and competitive EU aquaculture, providing logistic, administrative and technical assistance, and a one-stop-shop for knowledge and practices on sustainable aquaculture in the EU.

The INNOAQUA project aims to pave the path towards the upcoming sustainable and diversified EU in-land aquaculture industry by leaning on the demonstration and mainstreaming of innovative algae-based foods and solutions, and ecology, circularity and digitalization concepts.

AWARE aims to build the first European RAS (Recirculation Aquaponic System) using reclaimed water with zero residues to produce fish and vegetables fit for human consumption. It will establish a new business model for lakeside, riverside and urban communities, and provide scientific evidence to inform regulations and overcome policy barriers to upscaling and commercialisation.

The IGNITION project aims to gather new knowledge in animal welfare in the context of climate change, while assessing and developing new strategies to improve animal health through non-invasive tools.

AQUASERV brings together, enhances, integrates and customises research infrastructure capacities (facilities, instruments and expertise). Through transnational (on-site or remote) and virtual access, it advances science and supports the implementation of the EU Common Fisheries Policy, the Farm to Fork Strategy, the Sustainable Blue Economy and the European Green Deal.
