Yesterday, the EU Social Partners in the fisheries sector, represented by Europêche and the European Transport Workers’ Federation (ETF), presented at the European Parliament the results of a major initiative aimed at creating a safer, healthier, and more worker-friendly fisheries sector across Europe. The dissemination conference, hosted by MEPs Nicolás González Casares (Socialists and Democrats) and Paulo do Nascimento Cabral (European People’s Party), provided an opportunity to showcase innovative tools developed under the EU project Pillars of the Sea 3: Roadmap towards socially sustainable fishing.

In the framework of the ‘Pillars of the Sea 3’ project, Europêche and ETF work together with specialists in the sector to develop a wide range of tools – guidelines, course programmes, legal analyses, and recommendations – for a safer, healthier, and more worker-friendly fisheries sector in the EU and worldwide.
