The SturNet project aims to protect sturgeon populations and preserve the Black Sea Basin's unique ecosystem. Through collaborative research, data collection and model development,our habitat protection efforts will support the sustainable development of the region’s natural resources. One of the main goals and project results is to develop, pilot and deliver an innovative open digital toolset that will be able to provide free interactive information about the sturgeons’ areas and periods of reproduction towards key stakeholders. The project results also include the preparation of 6 joint policy documents on the conservation of sturgeons in the Black Sea basin, as well as 2 scientific publications on studies on the dynamics of sturgeon populations, which will contribute to the scientific understanding and conservation of these species.
