Draft:IUU Fishing in the Gulf of Guinea
Illegal fishing practices in the Gulf of Guinea region / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing (IUU) is a term that describes a range of maritime practices by fisheries that in some way violate the laws and regulations set unto them. Although a global issue, IUU fishing is particularly prevalent in the Gulf of Guinea (GoG), a stretch of water part of the Atlantic Ocean in the region of West Africa. Research around IUU fishing is a multi-disciplinary effort and has in recent years become a significant priority to relevant academics, with a special focus on the GoG. Because of the illicit nature of crime and the remoteness of the high seas, it is often hard to effectively monitor and diagnose the problem in its entirety.
