EFCA support to strengthening Algeria capacity in fisheries control and surveillance
The project named ‘EFCA support to strengthening Algeria capacity in fisheries control and surveillance’ was developed within the framework of the Blue Economy — Fisheries and Aquaculture Programme (Algeria) adopted by the European Commission in Decision C(2020) 7568 of 29 October 2020 on the financing of the 2020 Annual Action Programme for Algeria.
In that context, the European Commission’s Action Document on the Blue Economy — Fisheries and Aquaculture Project provides in its Specific Objective 3 (OS3) that ‘Algeria has the operational capacity to monitor, control and manage fisheries throughout its territory by meeting the definitions and requirements for supervision and reporting to regional fisheries management organizations (CGPM, ICCAT).
Expected results:
Result 1 (R1): The updating of the legal framework, in accordance with international and regional standards (ICCAT/GFCM) for fisheries control and surveillance, is prepared and drafted by the Algerian authorities, with the support of EFCA.
Result 2 (R2): AIS/VMS systems designed to equip fishing vessels are made available to the Algerian authorities and the data are transmitted to the Algerian FMC;
Result 3 (R3): The Algerian FMC is able to receive VMS/AIS surveillance data, and staff are trained to analyse and cross data’s.
EFCA contribution
In this context, EFCA will provide assistance to the Algerian authorities, in coordination with Expertise France, and implement the activities under result R.3.3, in particular technical assistance and advice to:
Duration and regional scope
The duration of the EFCA contract for the implementation of this project is 4 years (1 March 2022 to 28 February 2026). The actions will be carried out in close cooperation with the Algerian authorities and Expertise France as a partner in the implementation.
E-FishMed
A new virtual fisheries control academy for the Mediterranean
In the framework of the international dimension of its mandate, the European Fisheries Control Agency (EFCA) supports and implements the Project “Mediterranean virtual regional training academy on fisheries control and inspection (eFishMed)”
e-FishMed promotes cooperation in the fight against IUU fishing, the implementation of General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GCFM) and International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) conservation and management measures.
Political and legal framework
The Project is framed in the context of several European Union (EU) policies, namely the Western-Mediterranean Sea basin strategy (WestMED Blue Economy Initiative), the new approach for a sustainable blue economy in the EU and the new agenda for the Mediterranean.
The e-FishMed project is financed under the European Maritime, Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund (EMFAF). The Implementing Decision – C(2021) 3870 final - was adopted on 4 June 2021 and the action is included in the EMFAF work programme 2021 under Priority 4 – Strengthening international ocean governance and enabling safe, secure, clean and sustainably managed seas and oceans.
Duration and regional scope
The Contribution Agreement was signed by EFCA and the European Commission on 15 December 2021, the project started on 1st February 2022 and will last three years.
Algeria, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco, and Tunisia are the Beneficiary Countries (BC) of the project and the initiative will be technically supported by France, Italy, Malta, Portugal, and Spain, as Project Partners (PP). In the future, the project could be extended to other Mediterranean countries.
Objectives
The overall objective of e-FishMed is to conduct specific capacity building activities in the BCs contributing to a better understanding and application of the rules.
The specific objective of e-FishMed is to improve national and regional Monitoring, Control and Surveillance (MCS) systems of BC by setting-up a virtual regional training academy.
An e-learning platform will be at the core of the project, improving the effectiveness of training activities aimed to reinforce knowledge and competences of fisheries control and inspection staff.
Expected results
There are three expected results:
Added value
The virtual academy will contribute to harmonising fisheries control and inspection activities and foster cooperation and exchange of best practices between northern and southern Mediterranean countries.
The project will also be catalyst for a stronger cooperation on fisheries control and sustainable blue economy in the Mediterranean region, improving the level playing field for fisheries. Indeed, training of inspectors and development of standardized procedures aim at the equal treatment of operators.
The added value of e-FishMed was also recently recognised in the WestMed Ministerial Declaration dated 23 June 2023 that welcomed the share of expertise and best practices within the e-FishMed project.

Η Ευρωπαϊκή Υπηρεσία Ελέγχου της Αλιείας είναι Οργανισμός της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης. Αποστολή της Υπηρεσίας είναι να προωθεί τα υψηλότερα κοινά πρότυπα ελέγχου, επιθεώρησης και εποπτείας που εφαρμόζονται στο πλαίσιο της Κοινής Αλιευτικής Πολιτικής. Η EFCA θα λειτουργεί στο πλέον υψηλό επίπεδο αριστείας και διαφάνειας με στόχο την ανάπτυξη της απαιτούμενης εμπιστοσύνης και συνεργασίας όλων των εμπλεκόμενων μερών και, ως εκ τούτου, τη διασφάλιση της αποτελεσματικότητας και της επάρκειας των δραστηριοτήτων της.
Οι κυβερνήσεις της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης συμφώνησαν στη σύσταση της Υπηρεσίας στο πλαίσιο της μεταρρύθμισης του 2002, με σκοπό την εδραίωση μιας νοοτροπίας συμμόρφωσης στον κλάδο της αλιείας σε ολόκληρη την Ευρώπη. Τον Απρίλιο του 2005, θεσπίστηκε η απαιτούμενη νομοθεσία με τον κανονισμό (ΕΚ) αριθ. 768/2005 του Συμβουλίου. Πρωταρχικός ρόλος της Υπηρεσίας είναι η οργάνωση του συντονισμού και της συνεργασίας μεταξύ εθνικών δραστηριοτήτων ελέγχου και επιθεώρησης ούτως ώστε οι κανόνες της κοινής αλιευτικής πολιτικής να τηρούνται και να εφαρμόζονται αποτελεσματικά.
Η προστιθέμενη αξία του Οργανισμού έγκειται, κατά πρώτον, στη συμβολή του για τη διασφάλιση της ισότιμης μεταχείρισης στον τομέα της αλιείας σε ευρωπαϊκή κλίμακα, ούτως ώστε όλοι οι εμπλεκόμενοι φορείς να τηρούν τις ευρωπαϊκές υποχρεώσεις και να απολαύουν ίσης μεταχείρισης, ανεξαρτήτως της τοποθεσίας στην οποία δραστηριοποιούνται. Κατά δεύτερον, ο Οργανισμός συμβάλλει στη βιώσιμη αλιεία ενισχύοντας τη συμμόρφωση προς τα υφιστάμενα μέτρα διατήρησης και διαχείρισης προς όφελος των σημερινών και των μελλοντικών γενεών.
Ο Οργανισμός, σε συνεργασία με τον Ευρωπαϊκό Οργανισμό Συνοριοφυλακής και Ακτοφυλακής και τον Ευρωπαϊκό Οργανισμό για την Ασφάλεια στη Θάλασσα στηρίζουν, καθένας στο πλαίσιο της εντολής του, τις εθνικές αρχές κατά την εκτέλεση των καθηκόντων ακτοφυλακής που τους ανατίθενται.
Η EFCA έχει την επίσημη έδρα της στο Βίγκο, στην Ισπανία.
