The PRIZEFISH project is based on the idea of implementing a change in cross-border, territorial and socio-economic development concerning the cooperative exploitation of Adriatic fishery resources in order to achieve long-term benefits on Adriatic marine ecosystems. PRIZEFISH has as its foundation a long series of synergies and knowledge capitalized in numerous cooperative projects, both completed and ongoing, related to the fisheries sector. The overall goal of the project is to address the dual challenge for Italian and Croatian Adriatic SMEs and producer organizations (POs) to be more sustainable and increasetheir economic competitiveness in fish markets by developing and experimenting with innovative fishery products with added value provided by eco-labels that meet environmental, economic and social sustainability requirements.

Co4SSF develops new approaches for fisheries management to support the integrated management of the coastal strip and maritime compartments where protected habitats fall, with particular reference to the Small Scale Fisheries sector.
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.
