Abstract

In this document, the MSC established a standard describing a well-managed and sustainable fishery (the MSC Principles and Criteria) through extensive consultation with fishery stakeholders. Immediate management improvements resulting from certification include improved research, management and data collection, which were required as conditions of certification. The future success of the MSC Certification Program will depend on the MSC's ability to address challenges including winning and maintaining the confidence of all stakeholders; building public awareness of the MSC Logo; ensuring the MSC Standard is relevant to all commercial capture fisheries; and keeping on the right side of international trade rules.
