Coastal cities face one of the great challenges of our time: adapting to the effects of climate change without compromising their social and economic development. Within this framework, the General Manager of the Barcelona Capital N\u00e0utica Foundation<\/a>, Laure\u00e0 Fanega<\/strong>, participated in the event organized by Prensa Ib\u00e9rica<\/strong>, on the panel \u201cBlue Mediterranean: science, sustainability and prosperity\u201d<\/strong>, in a conversation shared with Oriol Puig.<\/p>\n

During his intervention, Fanega highlighted<\/strong> the role of the Barcelona Capital N\u00e0utica Foundation<\/a> and the solid blue economy ecosystem concentrated in Barcelona, a key environment for driving innovation and moving towards a more sustainable maritime model. He also highlighted the opportunity represented by the city hosting Advance Maritime Technology 2027<\/strong>, one of the leading international trade fairs focused on decarbonization and the application of new technologies to nautical activities and navigation.<\/p>\n

Subsequently, in statements to El Peri\u00f3dico, Fanega<\/strong> underlined the importance of the Barcelona Manifesto<\/strong>, a roadmap developed by the DCC-SOE Ocean Economy Barcelona<\/strong>, aimed at boosting coastal resilience globally and which will be presented this autumn within the framework of Tomorrow Blue Economy<\/a>. According to the General Manager, the document will serve to define principles and commitments that help cities protect marine ecosystems and strengthen social cohesion while promoting sustainable development.<\/p>\n

With this participation, the Foundation reinforces its commitment to innovation, sustainability and coastal protection<\/strong>, positioning Barcelona as an international benchmark in science-based solutions to face the global challenges of the Mediterranean and the blue economy.<\/p>\n<\/div>
