Description
This Info Day will explain the policy context and present the objectives and scope of the call. The session will further explain the call conditions and how to apply, including tips and tricks to improve your proposal.
Participants will be able to ask questions via Sli.do, using the hashtag #EMFAF2025Fisheries.
The call will support projects that aim to strengthen the scientific knowledge needed to support the design of science-based policies for fisheries conservation and management.
The actions can include (not limited to):
- the collection of samples or data in the field, and processing of samples that fall outside the scope of national data collection programmes,
- harmonisation or improved protocols,
- trials, meta-analysis, modelling, developing methodologies for stock evaluations,
- data validation or data preparation to feed into models,
- expanding current databases,
- link existing initiatives and develop networking activities between EU scientists and/or with the EU fishing industry.
The funded projects are expected to improve the knowledge available to the fisheries scientific communities in the European Union and at global level, which will in turn have a direct influence on improving the science base of the conservation and management measures designed in the context of the Common Fisheries Policy.
