Discards.

réduction des rejets en mer.

ABSTRACT
These International Guidelines on Bycatch Management and Reduction
of Discards were developed through a participatory process involving
fisheries experts, fishery managers from governments, the fishing
industry, academia and non-governmental and intergovernmental organizations. The guidelines are designed to provide guidance on
management factors ranging from an appropriate regulatory framework to the components of a good data collection programme, and include the
identification of key management considerations and measures necessary to ensure the conservation of target and non-target species, as well as affected habitats. These guidelines are voluntary and constitute an instrument of reference to help States and RFMO/As in formulating and implementing appropriate measures for the management of bycatch and reduction of discards in all fisheries and regions of the world.
