No results found.The FAO Workshop on the Management of Deep-sea Fisheries and Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems in the Mediterranean took place from 18 to 20 July 2016 at the FAO Headquarters in Rome, Italy. The workshop was organized in close collaboration with the General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM). The meeting addressed issues relating to the definition and management of deep-sea fisheries and vulnerable marine ecosystems (VMEs) in the Mediterranean, within the framework of the International Guidelines for the Management of Deep-sea Fisheries in the High Seas (FAO, adopted in 2008; FAO Deep-sea Fisheries Guidelines). The workshop characterized deep-sea fisheries in the Mediterranean, reviewed the current GFCM management measures specific to deep-sea fisheries and biodiversity protection (i.e. the establishment of fisheries restricted areas), and addressed specific issues related to VMEs (such as the use of VME indicator species lists and encounter protocols). The aim of the worksho p was to provide inputs to ongoing discussions within GFCM about required management measures to sustainably harvest deep-sea fish stocks and protect fragile habitats.
