Effective fisheries governance is essential for translating knowledge into practical implementation of Ecosystem Based Fisheries Management (EBFM).
This policy brief summarises SEAwise research on governance, outlining our work exploring the effectiveness of – and potential for improving – fisheries governance at the regional and sub-regional level across Europe.
Through a varied research approach, harnessing stakeholder insights, our work contributes knowledge on how effective governance can be understood and how well current governance processes are functioning in practice. Our findings offer insights into where improvements can be made to European fisheries governance, to ensure processes are both more effective and tailored to the unique context of each fishery.
