Descripción
The Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC) is an intergovernmental organization responsible for the management of tuna and tuna-like species in the Indian Ocean. It aims to promote cooperation among the Contracting Parties (Members) and Cooperating Non-Contracting Parties (collectively referred to as CPCs) of the IOTC, with a view to ensuring, through appropriate management, the conservation and optimum utilization of stocks covered by the organization’s establishing Agreement, and to encourage sustainable development of fisheries based on such stocks. The proposed actions of this project were related to the implementation of Article X of the IOTC Agreement and the IOTC’s Conservation and Management Measures (CMMs), which the beneficiary countries continue to have difficulties implementing. The primary objective of the project was to strengthen the ability of fisheries administrations of IOTC developing coastal States CPCs to meet their obligations to sustainably manage the fish stocks under the mandate of the IOTC. The project focused on IOTC CPCs.
