| Grant Amount | $1,045,000 |
| Duration | Three Years |
The overall goal of the project is to reduce illegal fishing in the SADC region by developing a regional policy commitment to a SADC minimum transparency standard that is aligned, as far as possible, to the principles of Global Charter for Transparency. This will take place by working with the SADC countries and ministerial and operation processes to demonstrate the benefits of applying strong minimum standards for fisheries transparency.
This will be achieved by practically demonstrating that transparency standards can be applied through systematic assessment and inspection of fishing vessels and by garnering support for policy change and adoption of a SADC standards for the Regional Register of Fishing Vessels.
