非法、不报告和不管制 (IUU) 捕鱼和港口国措施协定(PSMA) 非法、不报告和不管制捕鱼，是渔业可持续发展的主要威胁之一。它出现在各种类型的渔业捕捞之中。 它影响鱼类种群，脆弱的海洋生态系统，以及数百万依赖渔业为食物和收入来源人口的生计。非法、不报告和不管制捕鱼造成的损害严重，但我们有办法阻止它。联合国粮农组织《港口国措施协定》是世界上第一个针对非法、不报告和不管制捕鱼具有约束性的国际法律文书。 |

Illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing | Sustainable fishing starts with us Although the impacts of Illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing on world oceans, trade, and coastal communities can be substantial, most consumers seldom think of IUU fishing as an obstacle to the sustainability of our ocean. When illicitly caught fish ends up on our plates, we are accomplices in unsustainable, and often criminal practices, that are damaging for our well-being and for the sustainability of our ocean. As consumers, we can contribute to stop IUU fishing with our personal choice. Paying attention to the source of the fish we buy, to its traceability and environmental sustainability is a powerful way to start. We can make a difference. Sustainable fishing starts with us. |

In 2017, the 72nd Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations proclaimed 2022 as the International Year of Artisanal Fisheries and Aquaculture (IYAFA 2022), with the FAO serving as the lead agency, in collaboration with other relevant organizations and bodies of the United Nations system. IYAFA 2022 will be an opportunity to celebrate the diversity of small-scale artisanal fisheries and aquaculture, including women and youth; to share the current and potential contributions to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals and highlight related innovation; and to build and strengthen related support and partnerships at all levels. It is also an important opportunity to advance the implementation of relevant normative instruments, such as the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication. |
Not a drop in the ocean – key successes by the Common Oceans ABNJ Program Our Common Oceans - the marine Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction (ABNJ) - is the home of vitally important ecosystems and essential resources, but they are difficult to manage. Tasked with the mission to improve fisheries management and biodiversity conservation in the ABNJ, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and partners set to work on the Common Oceans ABNJ Program. Between 2014-2019, the Program made significant strides in improving tuna fisheries, tackling illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing, and protecting marine life and vulnerable ecosystems. All of this was more than just a drop in the ocean, but we need to do more to ensure that our Common Oceans are managed sustainably for future generations. |
