Start year 2014 End year 2015 Funding (€) € 284,705 Website NA Summary The establishment of appropriate management measures for sustainable fisheries requires an understanding of the status of the different fish stocks involved and of the technical characteristics of the fisheries, but also a clear knowledge of the socio-economics aspects pertaining to these fisheries.
The SEDAF project aims at contributing to the improvement of such knowledge in the Adriatic region, exploiting and combining all the different sources of socio-economic information and evaluating the knowledge gaps.
This will be done in combination with a process of identification of the main fisheries and the analyses of the status of related shared and non-shared resources, all of which being the basis for the application of bio-economic models for simulations/forecast.
The project will cover the different fisheries undertaken along the Adriatic coasts by Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro and Albania on the basis of their evolution over the last years.
The indicators collected will be in line with the methodology and interpretation developed in the DCF and STECF reports for socio-economic data and in the STECF reports on balance between fishing capacity and fishing opportunities.
The indicators will be reported as annual averages by fleet segment (following DCF segments) for the economic assessment and profit/loss analysis, whilst selected variables will be taken and estimated at fishery and/or GSA level for bio-economic modelling.
