International Day for the Fight against Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) Fishing

International Day for the Fight Against Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated Fishing” is observed on June 5 every year. Over the years, technological advances, increasing demand for seafood, and inadequate governance have contributed to a rise in illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing. This is a reminder to the world that our oceans, their ecosystems, and the livelihoods of millions are under a silent but serious threat.
