Recognizing the detrimental effects of the expanding blue economy on the natural environment, C-FAARER will deliver a roadmap and guidance, co-designed with stakeholders, to support ocean farmers in the Atlantic and Arctic Sea basin to develop community-driven business models for regenerative ocean farming and policymakers to take enabling actions.
The project aims to create a thriving blue economy that respects and protects the marine environment. With the collective efforts of all country partners, C-FAARER holds the potential to bring about positive economic, social, and environmental changes to coastal communities and beyond.
C-FAARER is a two-year project funded by Horizon Europe under the Mission ‘Restore Our Ocean and Waters by 2030’.
