Activities

The Institute of Marine Research (IIM-CSIC) is one of the main marine research centers in the Iberian Peninsula. Looking at the Atlantic from Vigo, a city with a strong connection with the sea, the IIM-CSIC faces the challenge of increasing our knowledge about the ocean, from its physical characteristics to the food we take from it and the processes that bind the whole system together.
As part of the Spanish Research Council (CSIC), at IIM we take pride in the interdisciplinary nature of our work, aiming to contribute to the UN Sustainability Goals and to support society in overcoming the huge challenges that stand in front of us.

The IIM seeks to evolve as a multidisciplinary research center that responds to society's challenges based on the knowledge we gather from the sea, with an eye on the global challenges defined by the UN Sustainable Development Goals, but with ever-present roots in the local communities around us and in their needs, expectations and wisdom.

IIM’s values are abstract and transversal concepts that the Institute applies across all its actions, relationships and communications with the society it belongs to.
