Knowledge measures

The combination of education with action is the best approach to make things happen. The aim of the training should be to outline how action can be taken (possibly in a step-by-step approach).

Research and Innovation Research and Innovation

Relevant type of aquaculture:

Fish Shellfish Seaweed

Relevant sea basin:

North

Relevant stage:

Prevention and reduction

Related Barriers:

  • Guidelines and specifications for different types of materials and equipment are lacking. A difference should be made between consumables; i.e. single or short use materials and durables; i.e. long use materials.

  • Research and innovation activities do not support sufficiently the aquaculture developments, e.g. cooperation with universities doing material research including their impact on the environment.

  • The sector needs more information exchange and dialogue (e.g. workshops, trainings, forums, common toolboxes, free best practice guidelines, etc.).

  • A leadership within the entire sector to better implement innovative solutions of waste management (i.e. common sourcing/ funding/monitoring/best practice replication, etc.) is missing.
