Klaipėda will host an Innovative Aquaculture FORUM of the South Baltic region

Modern aquaculture is seen as a sector that supplies nutritious and healthy food with a low environmental and climate footprint, that creates economic opportunities and jobs, and becomes a global reference for sustainability and quality.

Recent  strategic guidelines for a more sustainable and competitive EU aquaculture provided by the European Commission, give a strong boost to discuss the current state of this sector in the South Baltic region and identify areas where further work is needed to promote the sustainability, competitiveness and resilience of this industry.
