The “OACPS Strategic Plan of Action for Fisheries and Aquaculture 2030” is elaborated against the political and institutional backdrop of the OACPS, as a fully-fledged intergovernmental organisation. The endorsement of the Revised Georgetown Agreement (RGA) by the 9th Summit of ACP Heads of State and Government in Nairobi, Kenya, in December 2019 and its subsequent entry into force on 5 April 2020, established the OACPS as the largest transcontinental organisation representing only developing countries. Commensurate with this status, a bold vision for the OACPS was outlined by the OACPS Heads of State and Government to establish it as ‘the leading transcontinental organisation working in solidarity to improve the living standards of our peoples through South-South and North-South Cooperation”. At the same time, the post-2020 development landscape has changed such as a new partnership agreement between the OACPS and the European Union, that replaces the Cotonou Partnership Agreement, and the RGA, which opens possibilities to develop much wider cooperative relationships with other international actors. Globally, the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development has redefined global goals and targets for sustainable development, and is being comprehensively addressed by all Member States of the OACPS. With respect to fisheries and aquaculture, SDG 14 (Life Below Water) aimed at «Conserving and sustainably using the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development» takes prominence and provides a framework for the development of the Strategic Plan and Actions programmed under it. Other SDGs and targets are also closely linked to fisheries and aquaculture (in particular environment, climate, gender, inclusivity, and human rights) and these need to be integrated into an holistic approach.
