STECF (2022)

 

Expert panel on demography in the fishing industry and social dimension of the EU Common Fisheries Policy.

The panel met for the first time in 2019 to analyse and evaluate the collection of demographic variables in the EU data collection programme. The panel continues to work on making the social and cultural importance of fisheries more visible.
