About me
Mr Serangeli possesses over 45 years of extensive and multidisciplinary experience in the fields of fisheries, aquaculture, and the broader Blue Economy. A marine biologist by training, he has worked across nearly 50 countries, providing high-level expertise in ocean governance, sustainable fisheries management, inland and marine aquaculture, and circular economy initiatives. He has been instrumental in shaping strategies and reports at both EU and international levels, including authoring the Blue Economy chapter for Italy’s EMFAF Operational Programme and co-authoring the 2024 Blue Bioeconomy Report for the European Market Observatory (EUMOFA).
In his career, Mr Serangeli has acted as a senior consultant, evaluator, and project leader for a wide array of initiatives under the EU, UNIDO, national ministries, and NGOs. His work spans from advising on legislative alignment with the EU's Common Fisheries Policy, to implementing vessel monitoring systems and fighting IUU fishing. He has led capacity-building projects in Latin America and Sub-Saharan Africa, including artisanal fisheries development and mangrove conservation.
Notably, Mr Serangeli has held pivotal roles in monitoring and evaluation (M&E), having led the Fisheries and Aquaculture Monitoring and Evaluation Support Unit under the EMFF, and evaluated large-scale programmes such as E€OFISH across Eastern and Southern Africa. He is also active in aquaculture innovation, leading a freshwater facility in Italy and coordinating biodiversity-focused fish repopulation projects.
His strategic insight is underpinned by strong experience in EU policy frameworks, stakeholder engagement, and cross-sector collaboration, making him a key contributor to the sustainable development of the Blue Economy at both policy and grassroots levels.
