GAP1

Title: Bridging the gap between science and stakeholders: phase I common ground

Summary: By encouraging cooperative research on challenges of human impact on the marine environment, GAP1 supports the development of innovative fisheries management in Europe. Both science and industry partners of GAP1 are committed to building the capacity to collaborate in participatory research. They will share their experiences and work together to develop fisheries research case studies.

GAP1 case studies will form the basis of plans for future participatory research activities. GAP1 will explore how the knowledge and skills of science and industry partners can be combined to enhance the understanding and management of fisheries. GAP1 is the first of a planned 3-phase programme.
