TEAMFORADRIS (Transnational mussEls preservAtion systeM FOR the ADRIatic Sea) is funded by Interreg IPA Adrion and it addresses the urgent problem of mussel and Posidonia Oceanica mortality in the Adriatic-Ionian Sea. Through transnational and multi-disciplinary cooperation, the project contributes to preserving the marine ecosystem and fostering more sustainable seafood production.

ADRIS reunites 10 partners from 7 countries :

  • Italy
  • Greece
  • Albania
  • Montenegro
  • Slovenia
  • Croatia
  • Bosnia and Herzegovina

TEAMFORADRIS proposes a common strategy and practical tools to mitigate the impact of climate change – such as rising sea water temperatures, human pressure, mass tourism, and extensive agriculture – on the marine environment.

TEAMFORADRIS aims to:

– Map and collect data on key parameters and indicators of human, environmental and natural causes leading to mussel mortality, with a complementary focus on Posidonia Oceanica seabeds.

– Engage key players and mussel farms in adopting improved farming protocols and plastic net management, including waste, which are crucial for the marine flora survival.

– Provide and test innovative IT tools and integrated solutions to support more sustainable mussel farming and promote seabed bioremediation through Posidonia Oceanica. 

Resolvo provides project management support– both financial and technical – to the lead partner and assists partners I implementing n project activities.
