Objective It is widely recognised that scientific efforts need to be coordinated to strengthen the knowledge base in support of policy-making in a global context. This is a complicated task that requires effective coordination and cooperation among States, RFOs and other agencies. States with an obligation to ensure sustainability of the resources they exploit should seek (i) to promote responsible fisheries and (ii) to promote good, coordinated scientific research. In the case of the EU, actions should be consistent with major international agreements (UNCLOS, CCRF, UNIA, WSSD) and contribute to improving coherence between different EU Policies. The purpose of this Coordination Action is to facilitate a coherent approach towards research directed at the assessment and management of fish resources. The targets are particularly those areas where the European fleet is fishing in international or third country waters, or where the EU has important development goals. Thus, the principal objectives of TXOTX are: • To collate information from all RFMO/RFOs and Fisheries Partnership Agreements as well as selected additional regions of special interest (with emphasis on CPA areas) on the extent of scientific research programmes being undertaken by the various actors. • To analyse the data available and methodologies applied in assessment and management procedures regionally, in order to identify data and research gaps and opportunities for greater research coordination that may be promoted by the EU in support to scientific advice to fisheries management. • To develop recommendations on how to improve cooperation with third parties in order to enhance research and resource status The TXOTX consortium proposes to build a network of scientists in countries with a strategic geographical distribution to produce a synthesis of data collection standards, assessment methods, management procedures that will be disseminated among participants, stakeholders and public in general Fields of science agricultural sciencesagriculture, forestry, and fisheriesfisheries Keywords FPAs Fishery research network RFOs data collection management research needs stock assessment Programme(s) FP7-KBBE - Specific Programme "Cooperation": Food, Agriculture and Biotechnology Topic(s) KBBE-2007-1-2-11 - Improving research in support to scientific advice to fisheries management outside EU waters Call for proposal FP7-KBBE-2007-1 See other projects for this call Funding Scheme CSA-CA - Coordination (or networking) actions Coordinator FUNDACION AZTI - AZTI FUNDAZIOA EU contribution € 327 188,00 Address TXATXARRAMENDI UGARTEA Z/G 48395 Sukarrieta Spain See on map Region Noreste País Vasco Bizkaia Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Amaia Barrena (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data Participants (10) Sort alphabetically Sort by EU Contribution Expand all Collapse all Food and Environment Research Agency United Kingdom EU contribution € 188 662,00 Address Area 1A, Nobel House, Smith Square 17 SW1P 3JR LONDON See on map Region London Inner London — West Camden and City of London Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Susan Bramford (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data IMPERIAL COLLEGE OF SCIENCE TECHNOLOGY AND MEDICINE United Kingdom EU contribution € 195 848,00 Address SOUTH KENSINGTON CAMPUS EXHIBITION ROAD SW7 2AZ LONDON See on map Region London Inner London — West Westminster Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Brooke Alasya (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data INSTITUTO DE FOMENTO PESQUERO Chile EU contribution € 25 000,00 Address Alte.
