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.

Civil society organisations working to end plastic pollution in Southeast Asia and beyond call upon ASEAN member-states to cooperate and negotiate a just, effective global plastic treaty.

The Chinese High Seas Fleet is fishing illegally in the Southwest Indian Ocean (SWIO), exploiting crews aboard its vessels and threatening traditional artisanal fisheries in countries in East Africa. The region is particularly rich in species and secures the livelihood and food supply of numerous coastal communities.

This EJF investigation is the first of its kind to document the activities of the Chinese High Seas Fleet in the East Africa region. Fish and seafood caught by the fleet potentially reach important international markets, including Europe.

All crew members interviewed in the investigation reported human rights violations, and more than half witnessed physical violence. Four people died, one of them presumably by suicide.

The findings of this EJF report also show that the scale of the Chinese fleet's criminal activities is in direct contradiction to China's interest in the region's sustainable development: massive investments in the fishing sector not only threaten fragile marine ecosystems, but also harm traditional artisanal ones Fishing.

Women play an integral role in Liberia’s small-scale fisheries (SSF). However, the contribution women make to the sector is threatened by challenges that undermine their livelihood opportunities and limit their active participation in fisheries decision-making processes. The Village Savings and Loans Association (VSLA) scheme seeks to address these challenges and increase women’s participation in the governance and management of Liberia’s SSF sector.
