In many cases, developing solutions to challenges in fisheries and aquaculture will require interactions and collaboration with, and support from, stakeholders and institutions outside the sector. The 2030 Agenda encourages such interactions and processes that will lead to more integrated, efficient, inclusive and better coordinated initiatives as they address multiple SDG targets.

It will be of paramount importance for governmental and non-governmental stakeholders in fisheries and aquaculture to familiarize themselves with the 2030 Agenda and the SDGs, and to further promote awareness and action towards their achievement.

Through an unprecedented consultative process driven by UN Members, the adopted SDG framework contains a set of 169 targets and 231 indicators to measure and monitor progress at the global level.

Sustainable Development Goal 14 comprises ten targets - with several explicitly addressing fisheries-related issues and others with direct implications for the fisheries sector. The fisheries-related targets call for actions to: effectively regulate harvesting and to end overfishing, IUU fishing and destructive fishing practices; address fisheries subsidies; increase economic benefits from sustainable management of fisheries and aquaculture; and secure access for small-scale artisanal fishers to fishery resources and markets. The other targets relate to marine pollution prevention and reduction, management and protection of marine and coastal ecosystems, and implementation of UNCLOS and applicable existing regional and international regimes.
