Our target date of 11 October 2022 to ratify the Cape Town Agreement is just around the corner! The time is now. All details on the global treaty for safety of fishing vessels here: https://t.co/Q9MrrzZSK9 #SafeFishingLegalFishing@pewtrusts@FAO@ilo
NGOs at @FAOfish#COFI35 are united in their anti-#IUUfishing asks: FAO & PSMA's key role and need for greater #transparency & info exchange (GIES & Global Record). FAO,@ilo & @IMOHQ should continue to cooperate to this effect and on addressing high mortality & fisher safety.
The new @wto deal will help “[curb] the subsidies that drive overfishing" and begin to "help restore the health of fisheries and the communities that rely on them.”

The EU IUU Coalition is as strong as its parts. @AntoniaLeroy, Marta M Martin and @VVulperhorst are amongst those, together with many more. Fantastic work ladies and thank you for your professionalism, support and friendship throughout the past few years since joining the team!
Congratulations on 10 years guiding the fight against environmental crimes. You have had some great successes fighting #IUUfishing and highlight the importance of cooperation.
This week we're focusing on serious crimes associated with the fisheries sector - and how INTERPOL has enabled countries in all parts of the world to tackle the issue.

.@Pierre_Ka, @EP_Fisheries Chair: Fighting #IUUfishing is an example of good cooperation between decision makers, industry&NGOs. It is the cornerstone of fisheries policy & ocean governance. The 🇪🇺 IUU Reg has been a significant success. We should continue to show zero tolerance.
🇪🇺@EU_MARE Commissioner Sinkevičius: @EU_Commission President @vonderleyen is clear on her zero tolerance approach on #IUUfishing. I have a clear political mandate and personal will. The EU IUU Regulation is a transparent, non-discriminatory and efficient system.
There is much to do to improve human rights standards and protections at sea. @GlobalFishWatch is working with our partners to help apply technology and AI to help recognize where issues may exist. #humanrightsatsea#Standup4humanrights
Congratulations @tm_tracking great report highlighting a real challenge in fighting #iuu fishing. Follow the money and hopefully help stop the exploitation.
Illegal fishing operators exploit company structures to cover up illegal operations & conceal their ultimate beneficial ownership. *New* SPOTLIGHT briefing & analysis by @tm_tracking & @C4ADS released today👉https://t.co/fCvP2WM3IP #IUUFishing#illegalfishing#2020BlueJustice
👏 Just in: Earth’s most remote inhabited island chain, Tristan da Cunha, announced full protections for more than 90% of its waters. 👏
This brings the world one step closer to the goal of protecting 30% of the ocean by 2030. @Bertarelli_fdn https://t.co/JxYARfJ6XE
Today Government and people of #tristandacunha are proud to announce creation of the Tristan da Cunha Marine Protection Zone. Almost 700,00km2 will join UK #BlueBelt of marine protection, becoming the largest no-take zone in the Atlantic and the fourth largest on the planet.
Another report highlighting the impact of unregulated fisheries and the risk they pose to sustainability. Thank you @tm_tracking and @WWFEU - we need to start closing these gaps.
Our analysis https://t.co/JOAlhXLjHI shows the NW Indian Ocean squid fishery grew 830% to 279 vessels (2015-2019) supported by 53 reefers. This seasonal fishery is now starting up again with 110 vessels already arrived from Chinese ports fishing in the unregulated waters.
