    International Day for the Fight against Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing, Rome, 5-9 December 2016 2016
    Also available in:
    The 32nd Session of the Committee on Fisheries endorsed the proposal for the Declaration of the International Day for the Fight against Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing, taking into account the entry into force, on 5 June 2016, of the Agreement on Port State Measures to Prevent, Deter and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing, adopted by FAO in 2009. As the entry into force of this agreement marks an historical event, in that it is the first international legally-binding instrument specifically devoted to the fight against illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, the Committee recognized the importance of a specific initiative within the framework of FAO to raise awareness at all levels, including civil society and general public, on the threats posed by this phenomenon to the conservation and sustainable use of fisheries resources.
