Resumen
Descripción
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), which is cofunded by the European Union, 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 current project, representing the eleventh year of the second phase, aimed to consolidate and build on the achievements obtained so far, towards strengthening regional cooperation in support to the sustainable management of fisheries; in particular, in three target countries, Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia.
