Global Fisheries Susbsidies |
| Description |
|
The aim of this briefing note is to provide an analysis of the current state of fisheries subsidies worldwide. The note reviews previous investigations and discussion of subsidies issues, including the debates at the World Trade Organization, gives a brief overview of the impact of subsidies on key economic, social and environmental aspects of the fisheries sector, and discusses the updated estimates of global fisheries subsidies presented here. The note presents the various types of subsidies proposed in the literature, and how they are likely to affect our ability to manage fisheries sustainability through time. |
