Descripción
This document is the report of the second electronic monitoring (EM) implementation workshop on the implementation of EM systems and the development of regional standards that improve fisheries sustainability, compliance, and the monitoring of IUU fishing. The workshop was held from 10 to 12 December 2024 in San Sebastián, Spain, and was organized by the International Seafood Sustainability Foundation (ISSF). It focused on the adoption of minimum EM standards by four tuna RFMOs (IATTC, IOTC, ICCAT and WCPFC) and national-level initiatives, such as capacity development and roadmaps for EM implementation. It also highlighted opportunities for technical harmonization, practical application, and follow-up actions to strengthen EM systems, enhance observer coverage, and support sustainable, transparent, and ecosystem-responsible tuna fisheries management.
