This report highlights the fact that illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing is a global problem affecting both Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs) and the high seas. A number of initiatives have been taken to quantify and combat it, notably the 2001 FAO International Plan of Action on IUU Fishing. Although there are quite a lot of studies of IUU fishing in high seas waters, there is currently a dearth of information on the economic and other impacts of IUU fishing on developing countries. This study set out to address this, as far as possible, using empirical information available from the literature and by examining case studies of 10 developing countries around Africa and in Oceania that are currently suffering from differing levels of IUU fishing. The objective was an impact analysis of IUU fishing on developing countries (including economic, social, environmental, ecological, biological, health and nutritional impacts).
