Evaluation reportEvaluation of FAO’s work on the Agreement on Port State Measures to Prevent, Deter and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing
Evaluation brief
2024Also available in:
No results found.The Agreement on Port State Measures to Prevent, Deter and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing (PSMA) was approved by the Conference of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in 2009 and entered into force in June 2016. It is the first binding international agreement to combat illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing by strengthening port state controls as a means of ensuring the long-term conservation and sustainable use of living marine resources.FAO supports the implementation of PSMA through the global programme PGM/MUL/2016-2021/PSMA, consisting of 21 projects/projects funded by bilateral and multilateral donors. Since the programme was launched in 2017, the European Union, Germany, Iceland, the Republic of Korea, Norway, Spain, Sweden and the United States of America have committed over USD 27.7 million.The evaluation aims to provide accountability to national governments, resource partners and FAO management for the results to which the programme contributed. It also seeks to draw lessons from the programme’s design and implementation that could inform future, similar interventions. The findings, conclusions and recommendations of the evaluation will inform the 5th Meeting of the Parties to the Agreement and contribute to a broader understanding of FAO’s work on the prevention of IUU fishing. -
