Coastal Fisheries, or coastal fishing, is the name of a project that began with Matís and partners in 2014. The purpose of the project was to raise awareness of coastal fishing in the North Atlantic, from Norway in the east and all the way to Canada in the west but also to strengthen communication, explore synergies, explore opportunities for innovation and promote the exchange of information between parties in this important area of the blue bioeconomy.

As part of the project, a video was put together (in English) about this coastal fishing.

There was also issued a report where coastal fishing in the Arctic was analyzed.
