FAO in Geneva Fisheries Trade Talks: Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing
Channel: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
Date: 2023-12-14

The FAO Liaison Office in Geneva, in collaboration with the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Division, organized the “FAO in Geneva Fisheries Trade talks: Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) Fishing and the Role of International Instruments including the WTO Agreement on Fisheries Subsidies” on 26 July 2023.  

IUU fishing not only harms the environment but also undermines the livelihoods of fishermen and the overall economy, posing a significant threat to fisheries sustainability and marine ecosystem health.  

In recent years, the framework of international instruments and tools governing fisheries has been emerging, outlining the responsibilities of states, regional fisheries management organizations, and other stakeholders in conserving and sustainably using marine resources.
