The Region has financed projects to support fishermen operating within the Capo Caccia – Isola Piana Marine Protected Area .

This was announced by regional councilor Valdo Di Nolfo, signatory of an ad hoc amendment. "This intervention aims to support fundamental initiatives for the training and professional updating of operators , for environmental education and for the implementation of projects aimed at promoting local fish and the traditions of small-scale fishing in Alghero. In particular, the funding will cover expenses related to events to promote fish and local knowledge , as well as guaranteeing the costs of personnel involved in the implementation of these initiatives", explains Di Nolfo.

" Our goal - he continues - is to guarantee full support to all small-scale fishing operators , not limiting ourselves to the 22 currently recipients of this amendment. We will continue to work on this, together with the Board of Directors of the Porto Conte Park to expand protections and opportunities to all historically active operators".
