2024Also available in:
During this webinar, organized by the SFS-MED Platform and held on 21 March 2024, stakeholders from across the Mediterranean shared knowledge and concrete experiences about the role of policymaking, research, capacity building, technology and finance in accompanying the Blue Transformation in the Mediterranean region.Panelists and speakers highlighted that the Mediterranean fisheries and aquaculture sectors are crucial for the region's aquatic food systems, supporting food security, enhancing livelihoods and protecting heritage. To this effect, the Blue Transformation outlines a vision to expand aquatic food systems and increase their contribution to nutritious and affordable healthy diets for the most vulnerable, while fostering equitable growth, especially for those communities that depend on fisheries and aquaculture.The discussion was instrumental in demonstrating that concerted efforts in investments, governance, technological innovation, education and knowledge exchange are needed to address a series of intricate challenges and leverage promising opportunities to propel the sustainable growth of fisheries and aquaculture in the Mediterranean.Multistakeholder and community-driven approaches, as well as an enhanced regional cooperation are essential to integrate agrifood and the blue sectors, advancing towards holistic regional development and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). -

2023Also available in:
During this webinar, organized by the SFS-MED Platform and held on 12 September 2023, stakeholders from across the Mediterranean shared knowledge and concrete experiences about the challenges and opportunities in greening agrifood systems in the Mediterranean region. Panelists and speakers highlighted that without a shift towards more systemic and holistic approaches that embrace sustainable practices, food may become increasingly expensive and less secure, exacerbating social and economic inequalities, and further damaging the environment. The discussion was instrumental in demonstrating that organizational, digital and financial innovations are accelerators for the adoption of sustainable agrifood practices. To this effect, it is key to foster supportive policy environments to secure the necessary finance for the green transtition. Furthermore, research, training, and skills development constitute indispensable tools to engage a young working-age population in multi-stakeholder platforms that promote collaborative and integrated approaches with the aim to achieve the sustainable transformation of agrifood systems. -
