EUROFISH is part of a consortium and had to provide a detailed overview of the marine and maritime sectors that make up the “blue economy” in Bulgaria and Romania.
Exhaustive country fiches were developed based on desk analysis and quantitative data, as well as interviews with different stakeholders. Country fiches included not only the analysis of socio-economic information for maritime activities but also the analysis of scenarios for each country.
EUROFISH has been also responsible for the elaboration of the background paper for the Black Sea stakeholder conference to be held in Romania. This paper identifies areas and initiatives of cooperation for achieving Blue Growth in the region and possible policy directions.
