Morigenos hosts a project meeting of SAMESEA partners in Piran

Today, Morigenos is hosting a meeting in Piran with the partners of the SAMESEA project: SustainAble Management of marinE Sentinel spEcies and human Activities interaction. Co-financed by the European Union through the Interreg IPA ADRION programme, the project brings together 11 partners from the Adriatic-Ionian region with the aim of addressing key challenges in marine biodiversity conservation and ecosystem monitoring in a coordinated manner.
During the meeting, project partners will discuss the implementation of SAMESEA, present the progress achieved so far, and outline the next steps. The discussions will focus on data collection and analysis, the development of monitoring protocols, and management strategies for the effective conservation of marine species and habitats.
Morigenos plays a key role in the project by collecting essential data, conducting pilot tests, and developing methodologies for monitoring marine indicator species. Furthermore, the organisation is responsible for capacity building and stakeholder engagement, as well as leading the project’s communication activities to raise awareness among the public and scientific community about the importance of sustainable marine management.
The SAMESEA project represents a significant step towards a more harmonised and effective conservation of marine ecosystems in the Adriatic-Ionian region, highlighting the importance of international cooperation in preserving marine biodiversity.
