Description
In November 2020 Westminster passed the first major piece of fisheries legislation in 40 years - the Fisheries Act 2020. If the powers provided within the Act are embraced by the UK fisheries administrations there is a real opportunity for fisheries management to contribute to ocean recovery; delivering healthy oceans which provide a low carbon, low impact source of sustainable protein as part of a UK food strategy; and in turn, support job opportunities in coastal communities and beyond.
One of the objectives in the Act is the climate change objective which is a relatively new consideration for fisheries management. WWF, RSPB and the Marine Conservation Society are keen to explore what this may equate to in practical terms as part of a wider ecosystems based approach to sustainable fisheries and marine management. To that end we are seeking to commission a suitably experienced consulting firm or individual to research and compile a report that will set out what climate (and nature) smart fisheries might look like for UK fisheries.
More information about the objectives, suggested methodology and deliverables are described in the attached terms of reference.
