Study on circular design of the fishing gear for reduction of environmental impacts
Publication metadata
Within this project we have collated and assessed the range of challenges and solutions in the circular design of fishing gear, while also developing and validating the Technical, Circularity and Environmental Recommendations needed to support the development of guidance standards for the circular design of fishing gear. The guidance standards will provide European organizations with an opportunity to establish, implement and maintain circular design of fishing gear as an integral part of design and development of fishing gear, by integrating corresponding recommendations into their related organizational procedures and instructions. This project encapsulated 4 Tasks to comprehensively build an understanding of the challenges and solutions to the circular design of fishing gear, and advance recommendations for the development of guidance standards. These tasks firstly encapsulated a substantial literature review, stakeholder engagement and expert stakeholder workshop, to identify the existing challenges and solutions to development of circular design of fishing gears. This project then utilised these learnings to propose a range of draft recommendations for development of a guidance standard, examining potential logistic and technical issues that may facilitate or constrain the utility of such recommendations. This work then involved collating the main elements comprising these recommendations, and validated the utility of such elements. Lastly, this project provided final results, with particular attention to development of future recommendations on circular design of the fishing gear, including the framework to develop a request for guidance standards relating to the circular design of fishing gear. In addition, to aid the future development of guidance standards, this project also collates and assesses the range of future research and training needs.
