UNEP has undertaken a variety of country projects in the fisheries sector, focusing on the impacts of trade liberalization on fisheries resources and the interaction between fisheries subsidies and fisheries management policies. Most recently, UNEP's Economics and Trade Branch, in collaboration with the Sustainable Production and Consumption Branch, conducted three country demonstration projects in the fisheries sector. Under the common objective of "Reforming trade and fisheries policies, re-shaping supply chains and enhancing consumer demand for sustainable fisheries management", country teams in Ecuador, Southern Africa and Vietnam explored public policy reforms related to fisheries management, subsidies and trade, as well as corresponding private sector voluntary actions, and supply chain interventions. The core of these country projects was to provide a set of national and regional capacity-building activities aimed at improving the sustainable production and consumption of fish and fish products.
