Climate-friendly and resilient fisheries through innovation and co-learning

The INFINIFISH project will create innovations to monitor and mitigate the impacts of fishing on the climate and enable fisheries to adapt to the consequences of climate change. It will develop and validate technological solutions for the entire fisheries value chain, such as: • fishing gear that reduces fuel consumption and resuspension of carbon from the seabed • data collection technology to monitor fishing operations, catches, and the environment • decision support systems that optimise fishing operations with respect to energy efficiency • fish processing technologies that increase resource utilisation efficiency • novel products that enable the valorisation of currently discarded resources and new fish species The project will also investigate the impacts of climate change on ecosystems and fisheries through model studies, and identify effective climate change adaptations and mitigation strategies in fisheries management. INFINIFISH will carry out case studies in a wide variety of fisheries across Europe to explore and record how collaborative learning by different stakeholder groups can improve the use and uptake of these technical and operational solutions. The result will be a policy action plan that shows how technologies and innovations can be adapted to, and adopted by, particular local and social contexts. This will be key to maximising the impact of INFINIFISH, ensuring that the project will contribute to significant and lasting change in the fishing sector.
