EU Fishers Declaration Handover in Brussels
EU Small Scale Fisherman, Jerry Percy, Dimitris Zannes, Luis Rodriguez and Anne-Marie Vergez, hand over the common declaration to a representative of the EU rotating Presidency (Cyprus). The joint declaration, advocating environmentally friendly fishing to protect the oceans and ensure that fishing has a future, was agreed yesterday at the European Artisanal Fishermen's Congress in Brussels by representatives of small-scale fishermen from across Europe who met there to put coastal and low-impact fishing at the heart of the on-going reform of European fisheries policy.

EU Artisanal Fishermen's Congress in Brussels
Representatives of small-scale fishermen from across Europe meet at the European Artisanal Fishermen's Congress in Brussels to put coastal and low-impact fishing at the heart of the on-going reform of European fisheries policy. Small-scale vessels account for about 80% of the European fishing sector, but the European Union quota, subsidy and management systems have for decades favoured unsustainable industrial operators. Delegates adopt a joint declaration advocating environmentally friendly fishing to protect the oceans and ensure that fishing has a future.
