Project UK
is a collaborative partnership working towards an environmentally sustainable future for UK fisheries through the implementation of credible Fishery Improvement Projects.
Fishery Improvement Projects
Project UK Fishery Improvement Projects (FIPs) bring together the private and public sectors to address environmental challenges in the fisheries. Project UK has delivered two ‘Rounds’ of FIPs, comprising of six FIPs that cover the breadth of the UK and focus on eight different species.
The first two Rounds of Project UK FIPs have now concluded.
Read the Summary Report (October 2024) for information on how each FIP progressed, and what the next steps are.
