At AZTI, we are committed to the major challenges facing mankind, in line with the United Nations 2030 SDGs.
Therefore, we work on developing sustainable and healthy solutions in different fields of application, with which we aim to address the challenges we face. We carry out research and science to serve the common well-being of society as a whole.
The threat that climate change represents for the future of our planet makes it essential for us to act as soon as possible, adopting urgent measures to combat it and eradicate its impact on the ocean, the coast and the marine resources. Only in this way will we be able to build a sustainable world for all.
Protection of the marine areas is essential to help towards the effective and sustainable fishery management and to reduce marine pollution and the acidification of the oceans. The conservation and sustainable exploitation of the oceans and their resources is the responsibility of us all.
In spite of the work carried out in recent years, there are still inequalities in the world in terms of health and well-being. It is essential to continue researching and developing solutions that guarantee a healthy life, hence achieving the highest level of well-being for the whole population.
