MareFrame
Co-creating Ecosystem-based Fisheries Management Solutions
MareFrame seeks to remove barriers preventing a more widespread use of an Ecosystem-based Approach to Fisheries Management (EAFM).
Time: | 1. January 2014 – 31. December 2017 |
Financed by: | European Commission 7th Framework Programme (grant 613751) |
In cooperation with: | 28 participants, including project coordinator Matis –Iceland and Universities in Iceland, Helsinki, Aberdeen, Stockholm, Cape Town and Tromsoe |
It will develop assessment methods and a Decision Support Framework (DSF) for management of marine resources and thereby enhance the capacity to provide integrated assessment, advice and decision support for an EAFM.
Enabling comparisons between relevant “what-if” scenarios and their likely consequences, DSF will support the implementation of the new Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) and the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD).
