Expanding the knowledge among the “BLUE Marine Foundation”, recreational and professional fishermen

On the 13th - 14th of April 2019, “Marine and Environmental Research (MER) Lab” organised an event in collaboration of the “BLUE Marine Foundation” and the “University of Plymouth”. The event intended to explore sustainable fishing in Limassol, to further discuss the issue of the invasive species with representatives of recreational and professional fishermen groups, and to inform about a potential contribution in targeted removals on lionfish and other invasive species populations. During the event, the “RELIONMED’s” partners also dissiminated the overall work and aims of the project, as well as the distinct activities and actions that were already or will be implemented in the forthcoming years.
