Abstract :Worldwide, more than 800 million people depend on fish for food and income. But oceans and livelihoods are under severe pressure. 90% of fish stocks are either overfished insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(31%); or fully fished insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(59%);. Additionally, climate change impacts marine ecosystems –with drastic consequences for livelihoods, food security and markets. Europe is the biggest market and importer of fish in the world.

This is why WWF and EJF teamed-up with partners in Europe and the developing world – to drive the European market and global fisheries in a more sustainable direction.
