EUSAIR is built on four thematic pillars
Sustainable tourism
Environmental quality (including Topic 1 - on marine environment)
Connecting the region (transport and energy networks)
Blue growth (including Topic 2 - on Fisheries and aquaculture)
Sea basin strategies to ensure tailor-made measures and to foster cooperation between countries
Provide knowledge, legal certainty and security in the blue economy: to improve access to information about the sea; maritime spatial planning to ensure an efficient and sustainable management of activities at sea
Develop sectors that have a high potential for sustainable jobs and growth, such as aquaculture (Fisheries website), coastal tourism, etc.

Lack of data to assess progress towards GES and targets - Specially since the latest 2017 decision on GES
Issues that require the coordination of different sectors and actors, e.g. marine data & knowledge, maritime spatial planning...
Issues that do not fall under a single sector-based policy, e.g. "blue growth" (economic growth based on different maritime sectors).
