Aug 06, 2024La gestion des risques liés aux activités de pêche maritime professionnelle au regard des enjeux socio-économiques en zone Natura 2000 : Une pratique administrative incompatible avec les obligations de la France au titre de la Directive HabitatsRead
La mise en œuvre de la Directive Habitats par la France, en ce qui concerne la prise en compte des risques liés aux activités de pêche maritime professionnelle lors de l’élaboration des mesures de gestion, apparaît incompatible avec ses obligations au titre du droit européen. Cette note a pour objet de rappeler les obligations incombant à la France au titre de la Directive Habitats en matière de protection du milieu marin et de prise en compte des enjeux socio-économiques dans l’élaboration et la mise en œuvre des mesures de conservation, et d’attirer l’attention des services de l’État sur le défaut de conformité de la pratique administrative française en la matière.

Jun 11, 2024Championing the change: Priorities for the next European Commission and European Parliament (2024-2029)Read
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.

Jun 07, 2024Marea de injusticia : Explotación y pesca ilegal en embarcaciones chinas en el suroeste del océano ÍndicoRead
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.

Apr 18, 2024Une vague d'injustice : Exploitation et pêche illégale par les navires chinois dans le sud-ouest de l’océan IndienRead
Ce rapport cartographie la présence et les activités de la flotte chinoise de pêche lointaine dans le sud-ouest de l’océan Indien (« SOOI »), une région remarquable pour son paysage marin riche en biodiversité, qui constitue une ressource vitale pour les communautés côtières sur l’ensemble de ses rivages. Les conclusions du rapport montrent que, bien que les relations qu’entretient la Chine avec ses partenaires régionaux soient formulées en termes de « gagnant-gagnant », de développement durable et de bénéfices partagés de l’économie bleue, les réalités à bord de nombreux navires de la flotte chinoise de pêche lointaine sont en contradiction directe avec ces objectifs déclarés.

Apr 11, 2024Tide of injustice: exploitation and illegal fishing on Chinese vessels in the Southwest Indian OceanRead
This report maps the presence and activities of the Chinese DWF in the Southwest Indian Ocean (SWIO), a region notable for its biodiversity-rich seascape, which is a lifeline to coastal communities across its shores. The findings of the report show that while couched in terms of win-win, sustainable development and collective benefits from the blue economy, the realities on board many vessels in China’s DWF are in direct contradiction of these stated aims.
