Support to the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission - GCP/INT/305/EC
The Indian Ocean Tuna Commission is an intergovernmental organization established under Article XIV of the FAO Constitution to manage tuna and tuna like species in the Indian Ocean. Its main aim is the conservation and optimum utilization of fish stocks for long term sustainability. In recent years, the Commission has expressed concern that some countries are unable to report fisheries statistics to the level and extent required. In particular, the Commission identified a need to improve data collection and reporting for artisanal and industrial fisheries in developing coastal states. The aim of the project was to support the IOTC to improve the quality and quantity of data available. This will lead to a better scientific knowledge of the ecosystems managed by the IOTC, in particular those related to tunas and tuna like species, and ensure the appropriate management of all species impacted by IOTC fisheries.
