ProjectSupporting Responsible Fisheries in the Eastern Mediterranean through Scientific and Institutional Cooperation - GCP/INT/363/EC (Baby 01) 2022
Also available in:
No results found.The EastMed project’s overall aim is to support the sustainable management of marine fisheries in the Eastern Mediterranean subregion to boost economies and protect livelihoods. The achievement of this goal is supported through technical assistance and capacity development initiatives targeted at national fisheries departments, as means of increasing their scientific and technical skills on fisheries management, and through the development of coordinated, participatory fisheries management plans. -
ProjectAssessing and Monitoring Fisheries Resources and Ecosystems in the Straits of Sicily –Year 8 of the Medsudmed Project - GCP/INT/364/EC Baby 02 2022
Also available in:
The Strait of Sicily is home to many shared pelagic and demersal fisheries. Owing to their transboundary nature, these resources require a harmonized approach to fisheries management that is governed by the principles of the FAO Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries (CCRF), the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries (EAF) and is in line with the FAO Blue Transformation Roadmap. In April 2001, the MedSudMed Project was initiated to improve the capacity for fisheries planning and management based on scientific cooperation in the south central Mediterranean through the provision of capacity development and support to four countries: Italy, Libya, Malta and Tunisia. In 2012, the MedSudMed European Community Action began. In its eighth year, the Action continued to focus on the achievement of three Outputs: ( i ) developing capacities for the implementation of EAF through scientific fisheries monitoring and research; (ii) the preparation of scientific advice for managing fisheries; and (iii) the enhancement of regional cooperation and coordination in support of fisheries management, research and capacity development. -
ProjectFostering the Sustainability of Marine Fisheries in Central and Western Mediterranean Subregions through an Ecosystem Approach - GCP/INT/362/EC (Baby 01) 2022
Also available in:
Fisheries management in the Mediterranean is complex for several reasons, including, among others, fishing overcapacity; different levels of information development, in particular for biological and socio economic data that were neither readily available nor standardized; insufficient and weak legal aspects and measures for monitoring, surveillance and control activities; and inadequate institutional frameworks for subregional fisheries management. Against this background, Phase II of the CopeMed project (the first phase was implemented from 1996 to 2005) sought to strengthen science based fisheries management through enhanced technical scientific capacities, and the promotion of scientific cooperation among participating countries in the central and western Mediterranean subregions . The participation of all stakeholders in the fisheries management process was not yet sufficient. Therefore, the current project, representing the tenth year of the second phase, aimed to strengthen regional cooperation, in support to the sustainable management of fisheries, in particular in three target countries, Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia; as well as to consolidate and build on the achievements obtained so far.
