CAD04 - Tourism and aquaculture, an alliance for sustainability

Design a pilot database for an interactive tool that connect tourist and/or locals to sustainable aquaculture initiatives developed in Cadiz Bay. The idea is to bring the concept of blue tourism and ethical/sustainable consumerism closer to the population and tourists and provide tools to the users to choose a more sustainable way to enjoy the city. 

As an example, among the sustainability and aquaculture initiatives that we aim to map are:

• Infrastructure of the aquaculture industry with environmental friend features such as solar panels, rainwater collection, etc 
• Programs of marine litter (macro and micro) monitoring associated with aquaculture activities
• Use of sustainable packages to transport aquaculture products
• Practices that maintain cultural heritage (archaeological remains) and flora and fauna in protected areas
• Information on cultural/social aspects of the company: good practices that promote respect, inclusion, diversity, and collaboration among employees

- Definition of sustainability criteria and definitive database contents
- A database with sustainable initiatives related to aquaculture in Cadiz Bay
- A pilot version of an interactive tool that connects tourists and/or locals to sustainable aquaculture initiatives developed in Cadiz Bay
