EMFAF Info Day for the call for proposals for Scientific Advice for Fisheries.
Registrations have just opened for the #EMFAF info day for the call for proposals for Scientific Advice for Fisheries!
🎯 The aim of the call is to strengthen the scientific knowledge needed for #fisheries conservation and management in support of the #CommonFisheriesPolicy.
💶 Expected budget: € 2.6 million
✍ The call will open on 14 November
This online Info Day will present the upcoming call for proposals for Improving scientific knowledge to strengthen the science-basis of management decisions under the Common Fisheries Policy. The call is funded under the European Maritime, Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund (EMFAF) Work Programme 2024-2025. It is due to be published on 14 November 2024 with a budget of EUR 2.6 million.
Participants will be able to ask questions via Sli.do, using the hashtag #EMFAF2025Fisheries.
The call will support projects that aim to strengthen the scientific knowledge needed to support the design of science-based policies for fisheries conservation and management.
The actions can include (not limited to):
- the collection of samples or data in the field, and processing of samples that fall outside the scope of national data collection programmes,
- harmonisation or improved protocols,
- trials, meta-analysis, modelling, developing methodologies for stock evaluations,
- data validation or data preparation to feed into models,
- expanding current databases,
- link existing initiatives and develop networking activities between EU scientists and/or with the EU fishing industry.
The funded projects are expected to improve the knowledge available to the fisheries scientific communities in the European Union and at global level, which will in turn have a direct influence on improving the science base of the conservation and management measures designed in the context of the Common Fisheries Policy.
