  2. PARTNERS AND PROJECTS PARTNER INSTITUTIONS Cornell University (PI) New York Sea Grant Texas Sea Grant URI Sea Grant Puerto Rico Sea Grant University of Arizona Brooklyn College Universidad Juarez Autonoma de Tabasco (HC-PI) Technological Institute of Boca del Rio PROJECTS First Annual Sustainable Aquaculture Technology Transfer Workshop Establishment of the Center for Aquaculture Technology Transfer Development of a Recirculating Aquaculture System Module for Family/Multi-Family Use

  3. OBJECTIVES • Recruit key Aquaculture research and extension personnel within the Mexican university and institutional system. • Conduct an organizational meeting of the Center for Aquaculture Technology Transfer (CETRA) to determine center goals, select the permanent director, and establish group structure. • Establish ties with US-based researchers and SeaGrant Institutions to create basis for on-going collaborative research and extension activities (Web Site development). • Conduct the 1st Annual Sustainable Aquaculture Technology Transfer Workshop based on Cornell University’s Annual Recirculating Aquaculture Short Course. • Identify aquaculture goals for Mexican family/multi-family stakeholders. • Design a suitable recirculating aquaculture system module to meet these goals (may be done as part of a special seminar at the technology transfer workshop). • Develop a manual for technology implementation and management.
