SEAFARE is an Atlantic Area Transnational Programme project which aims to promote the diversification of the aquaculture industry by providing a greater range of species and alternative environmentally-friendly production systems. All the initiatives developed by the project are assessed for their commercial applicability through close collaboration with stakeholders and SMEs.

This issue of SEAFARE Project News features interviews with Nick Jones, a research officer at the Centre for Applied Marine Sciences at Bangor University (UK); Pedro Cañavate, a senior scientist working at the Instituto de Investigación y Formación Agraria y Pesquera (IFAPA) El Toruño; and René Robert, a senior researcher at L’Institut Français de Recherche pour l’Exploitation de la Mer (Ifremer). The newsletter also includes a report from the SEAFARE “Supporting Sustainable Oyster Aquaculture for the Atlantic Region of Europe” seminar, which was held in London (UK) on 3 December 2013.
