About this event

Nineteen leading organisations* working to increase fisheries transparency across the world invite you to participate in an afternoon of film screenings starting at 13:15, showcasing how a fundamental shift toward transparency in fisheries governance is critical to the future of our ocean. Afterwards, join us at 17:30 Lisbon time for a panel discussion about fisheries transparency in the Mediterranean and to discover the first Mediterranean atlas of trawling in protected areas. We will then end with a cocktail reception for all attendees.

*The organisations working to increase transparency in fisheries governance are:

The Anti-IUU Forum Japan was established in September 2017 by several NGOs and companies in Japan to jointly work on measures against IUU fishing. Current members include World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Japan, Seafood Legacy, Sailors for the Sea Japan and The Nature Conservancy (TNC).

The EU Fisheries Control Coalition – The Environmental Justice Foundation, The Nature Conservancy, Oceana, Seas At Risk, and WWF, together with ClientEarth, The Fisheries Secretariat, Our Fish and Sciaena – is working to ensure that fisheries management in the EU safeguards ocean health and marine life for generations to come. A robust Control Regulation is essential for sustainable fisheries. It will ensure that fisheries activities are fully documented and bring transparency to our seafood supply chains.

The EU IUU Fishing Coalition includes the Environmental Justice Foundation (EJF), Oceana, The Nature Conservancy, The Pew Charitable Trusts and WWF who are working together to promote EU leadership in improving global fisheries transparency and governance to end illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing.

The Fisheries Transparency Initiative (FiTI) is a unique global effort that supports coastal countries to enhance the accessibility, quality and credibility of national fisheries information.

The Global Transparency Coalition includes civil society members and regional coalitions who will collaborate globally to elevate and promote transparency in fisheries governance. The steering committee, co-chaired by Oceana and EJF, includes CIES (S. Korea), Seafood Legacy (Japan), PRCM (West Africa), Global Fishing Watch and the WWF Network.

The Med Sea Alliance is a campaign movement created in 2020 to bring together non-government organizations and networks working to improve the health and productivity of the Mediterranean Sea. The MSA includes Akdeniz Koruma Dernegi Archipelagos Institute, ClientEarth, Ecologistas en Acción, Environmental Justice Foundation, FishAct, Fundació ENT, Global Fishing Watch, Marilles Foundation, MedReAct, Oceana, Project AWARE, Save the Med, Seas at Risk and The Nature Conservancy

In the U.S.A., Oceana, WWF, the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) and International Corporate Accountability Roundtable (ICAR) collaborate to combat illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing and to identify and promote the adoption of sound fisheries management and labor practices on the water and across supply chains
