Innovation, development and sustainability in the fisheries and aquaculture sectors for the Campania Region

Back to index

CNR IRBIM is a partner in a Temporary Partnership coordinated by the Anton Dohrn Zoological Station with the University of Naples Federico II, the Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale del Mezzogiorno, the University of Sannio, the University of Suor Orsola Benincasa the University of Campania Luigi Vanvitelli, the National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development (ENEA) and the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV), to implement the project under a collaboration agreement with the Campania Region. This EMFF-funded project aims to achieve the “Maritime Spatial Planning” as envisaged in Directive No. 2014/89/EU, to promote the sustainable development of maritime economies and the blue economy. For this purpose, all major Public Research Institutions and Universities in Campania are providing their knowledge of the coastal and marine environment to produce a concise view on use constraints, ecosystem functioning, touristic and military use concessions, navigation routes, suitability for human activities based on ecological characteristics, and healthiness of natural resources and environment for mariculture activities. The purposes and benefits of marine and maritime spatial planning are many: to limit conflicts between sectors and create synergies between activities, to encourage investment with clearer rules, to increase cross-border cooperation between EU countries to develop energy networks, shipping routes, pipelines, undersea cables and other activities, but also to develop networks of protected areas, to protect the environment by identifying impacts and opportunities early on for wise use of space.

Research Projects

The research activities of the Institute are carried out in the context of research, development and innovation projects, both national and international, based on regional funding programs (POR FEAMPA - Regional Operational Program of the European Maritime Affairs Fisheries Fund and Aquaculture and POR FESR - Regional Operational Program of the European Regional Development Fund) or ministerial (PRIN - Projects of relevant national interest, PNRA - National Research Program in Antarctica, PO FEAMPA - National Operational Program European Maritime Affairs Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund) , programs for European Territorial Cooperation (Interreg), direct funding programs of the European Commission (Horizon2020 and Horizon Europe, Life, JPI - Joint Programming Initiatives, ERA-NET Cofund) and thematic collaboration initiatives managed by international organizations such as, for example , the FAO - GFCM (General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean). The Institute also develops funded projects in the context of collaborations with private companies in the sectors of the blue economy as well as technology transfer and research results. Research projects, mainly of a collaborative nature, are developed through a wide network of partners that include major Italian and foreign research institutions and universities.
