Four years after the reformed Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) entered into force, the 2020 deadline to end overfishing in European Union waters is quickly approaching.
On Wednesday, 21 February 2018, join a live webcast from The Pew Charitable Trusts’ all-day conference, “Countdown to 2020: How Far Has the EU Come in Ending Overfishing?” in Brussels.
The keynote speaker will be Karmenu Vella, EU commissioner for environment, maritime affairs, and fisheries, and the event will bring together experts from across Europe:
Policymakers.
Industry leaders.
Environmentalists.
We’ll discuss the progress made in implementing the CFP and additional steps to secure sustainable fisheries by 2020.
