Within the framework of european public aquaria a group was formed and lead by the Haus des Meeres.
This group aims at breeding more marine ornamental Fish species and at putting their keeping on a more sustainable basis.
Joint breeding efforts where fish fry is parted between breeding locations and subjected to different treatments are planned.
Data shall be generated and collected and this information shall be liberally shared among professionals and amateurs in dedicated meetings.
Progress reports
By 2020, sustainably manage and protect marine and coastal ecosystems to avoid significant adverse impacts, including by strengthening their resilience, and take action for their restoration in order to achieve healthy and productive oceans
Type of commitment
- Other (please specify): Reduction of fishing pressure on local stocks by breeding of fish
By 2020, effectively regulate harvesting and end overfishing, illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing and destructive fishing practices and implement science-based management plans, in order to restore fish stocks in the shortest time feasible, at least to levels that can produce maximum sustainable yield as determined by their biological characteristics
Increase scientific knowledge, develop research capacity and transfer marine technology, taking into account the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission Criteria and Guidelines on the Transfer of Marine Technology, in order to improve ocean health and to enhance the contribution of marine biodiversity to the development of developing countries, in particular small island developing States and least developed countries
Type of commitment
- Data access and sharing
- Transfer marine technology
