Directory of Mediterranean institutions and firms working onfinfish diversification identified during this survey ............................................................................................................. 131 CIHEAM - Options Mediterraneennes Foreword Aquaculture is one of the fastest growing food production sectors. Production techniques have progressed rapidly as a result of efforts from the private sector and the scientific community. To maintain this momentumin the Mediterranean Region, four international networks were established in partnership between International (FAO), Mediterranean regional (CIHEAM) and national institutions, and placed under the aegis of the Aquaculture Committee of the General Fisheries Council for the Mediterranean. These four Mediterranean networks are: TECAM (Technology of Aquaculture in the Mediterranean), SELAM (Socio-economic and Legal Aspects of Aquaculture in the Mediterranean), SIPAM (System of Information for the Promotion of Aquaculture in the Mediterranean) andEAM (Environment and Aquaculture in the Mediterranean) and have, as objectives, the promotion of co- operation in the above mentioned
