Development Goals
Global Commitments on oceans & seas
The last 30 years have seen 80 different commitments
• 2012 – Rio+20 Future we want (Rio di Janeiro)
• 2010 - Aichi Biodiversity Targets (Nagoya)
• 2002 – World Summit on Sustainable Development (Johannesburg)
• 2000 – Millenium Development Goals (New York)
“Food security exists when all people, at all times, have physical and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life.”World Food Summit 1996
Still 840 million people suffer from hunger today.
“We need not only to commit, we need to act”
José Graziano de Silva, 20 January 2014,Abu Dhabi First Blue Economy Summit.

Challenges in fisheries and aquaculture
• Fisheries: Resource management - 30% overfishing, IUU,
subsidies. Economic and operational management. Post-harvest utilization.
• Aquaculture: Production increase-increasing population. Sustainable and environmental. Technical processes.
Challenges in fisheries and aquaculture
• Habitat destruction: Economic activities Climate change - new challenges for Small-island
Developing States (SIDS) Pollution, declining biodiversity, hypoxic areas,
invasive species, corals, mangroves and ocean acidification.
• Socio-economic: Equitability Trade Resource allocation
Blue Growth“The Sustainable Contribution, and Conservation, of Living
Renewable Resources in the Marine and Fresh Water Ecosystems as well as adjacent Coastal and Inland
Ecosystems, to Food and Nutrition Security and Poverty Alleviation.” Fisheries ;
SCIENCE, INCENTIVE, CAPACITY, POLICIES AND GOVERNANCE.
Sunken billions, IUU, subsidies.
Aquaculture; 50-100 million ton gap to be bridged until 2030. NON-FED,
LOW INPUT, MARINE. Bio-security. Feed.
Blue Growth“The Sustainable Contribution, and Conservation, of Living
Renewable Resources in the Marine and Fresh Water Ecosystems as well as adjacent Coastal and Inland
Ecosystems, to Food and Nutrition Security and Poverty Alleviation.”
Habitats; BETTER MANAGEMENT, (incl. MPAs, “no takes”, “new
values” for ecosystem services, carbon sequestration.) He who gains, pays.
Socio-economic; NON DISTORTIVE TRADE, EQUITABLE ALLOCATION.
Right to food, UNCLOS, RFMOs.
