ProjectEnhancing Countries’ Capacities to Combat Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) Fishing - GCP/INT/313/SWE 2024Illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing undermines national and regional efforts to conserve and manage fish stocks, and, as a consequence, inhibits progress towards achieving the goals of long-term sustainability. Developing States’ capacities to tackle IUU fishing through port state measures (PSMs) and complementary instruments and mechanisms are varied. Some are more advanced and already have established a series of measures to combat IUU fishing, and require only limited assistance to effectively fulfil their international obligations. Many have in place basic fisheries legislation based on objectives of conservation, protection and sustainability of the fisheries resources, but lack enabling policies, laws and regulations to effectively prevent, deter and eliminate IUU fishing. Against this background, the project aimed to improve the capacity of States for the effective implementation of PSMs and complementary monitoring, control and surveillance (MCS) operations, measures and tools to combat IUU fishing.

ProjectCombating Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing at Global Level - GCP/GLO/1042/EC 2024
Also available in:
No results found.Illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing undermines national and regional efforts to conserve and manage fish stocks, and inhibits progress towards achieving the goals of long-term sustainability. Following the adoption of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea in 1982, several provisions and requirements to address IUU fishing were agreed within the international framework of instruments for fisheries management. More recently, international instruments and guidelines have been adopted that specifically address IUU fishing, including the FAO Agreement on Port State Measures to Prevent, Deter and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing, commonly referred to as the Agreement on Port State Measures (PSMA). The aim of the project was to strengthen capacity for the implementation of the PSMA and complementary instruments and tools. In particular, the project sought to address aspects related to information exchange and stakeholder coordination in support of the implementation of the PSMA and in combating IUU fishing.
