Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetThe Global Record of Fishing Vessels, Refrigerated Transport Vessels and Supply Vessels 2016The Global Record of Fishing Vessels, Refrigerated Transport Vessels and Supply Vessels provides a single access point for information on vessels used for fishing and fishing-related activities to combat illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing. As such, it gathers and disseminates certified, unequivocal information about vessels and vessel-related activities provided by the official State authorities responsible for it. It also gathers and provides historical information, such as data on vessels not currently holding any fishing authorization. IUU fishing accounts for USD 10-23 billion worth of fish taken annually. This means that 1 in 5 fish is taken from the world’s oceans using IUU fishing methods, posing a serious sustainability issue for our oceans and for their eco-system management. The Global Record aims to strengthen fisheries management and the sector’s sustainability in order to contribute to human and ecosystem well-being.
