To stop imports from Chinese-owned seafood companies engaging in slavery and illegal, unreported & unregulated fishing, transparency and strict import control are critical. As the biggest seafood market in the world - importing over 60% of its consumption - the EU must block entry of all abuse-tainted products and profits.

This toolkit has been produced by the Environmental Justice Foundation (EJF) with funding from the European Union (EU). It empowers small-scale fishing communities in the fight against illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing, and more broadly to achieve secure sustainable, legal and ethical fisheries.

Cette boîte à outils a été produite par Environmental Justice Foundation (EJF) avec le financement de l’Union européenne (UE). Elle fournit des conseils techniques aux professionnels des ONG qui travaillent auprès des communautés de pêcheurs artisanaux et cherchent à leur donner les moyens de lutter contre la pêche illicite, non déclarée et non réglementée.

Reaching net zero by 2050 is a legally binding target for the Taiwanese government, but continuing investments in fossil fuels hamper the country’s efforts to slash emissions and mean the government is failing in its fiduciary duty as a fund manager for the people. It is crucial that Taiwan actively mitigates the climate crisis by transforming its public fund investments, together with all other sectors.

實現2050年淨零排放是臺灣政府具有法律效力的目標，但持續投資化石燃料卻讓臺灣減排的努力大打折扣，也意味著政府沒有盡到為人民妥善管理基金的忠誠義務。若要有效對抗氣候危機，臺灣必須針對政府基金投資作出積極改變，與所有其他部門並行不悖。

The UK Special Representative for Climate Change role will be critical to enhance the UK’s engagement at the highest levels of international climate negotiations and will undoubtedly give positive visibility to Labour’s ambition to accelerate climate action. However, we believe biodiversity protection must also be recognised within the role’s title and remit.

Wetlands play a disproportionately large role in supporting biodiversity, maintaining human health and stabilising our global climate. Despite this, the rate of wetland loss far outpaces other biomes, making them one of our planet's most threatened ecosystems. We must reverse this now.

EJF's recent investigations into exploitation and illegal fishing on Chinese vessels in the Southwest Indian Ocean and the destruction of the Pantanal wetland in Brazil have brought to light the alarming pace of global environmental destruction, often accompanied by egregious human rights violations.

These crucial issues underscore the urgent need for the EU’s global leadership. EJF’s recommendations highlight strategic priorities underrepresented in political discussions, envisioning the EU’s next term, from 2024 to 2029, as a period of intensified efforts to combat illegal fishing and strengthen wetland protection worldwide.

En este manifiesto, presentamos una hoja de ruta para proteger los océanos, proporcionando recomendaciones normativas claras para salvar nuestros mares y salvaguardar nuestro futuro.

El presente informe esboza un mapa de la presencia y las actividades de la flota de altura china en el Océano Índico Sudoccidental, una región conocida por su paisaje marino rico en biodiversidad, que constituye el sustento para las comunidades costeras de la zona. China mantiene desde hace tiempo vínculos económicos y políticos cada vez más estrechos con la región, y ha destacado la economía azul del Océano Índico Sudoccidental como una zona clave de inversión y asociación. A la luz de los riesgos asociados a la presencia de la flota de altura china –que hoy en día se conocen mejor– es necesario examinar dichas inversiones para garantizar que la economía azul del Océano Índico Sudoccidental sea legal, sostenible y equitativa.
