The IMCS Network is an informal, voluntary organisation that promotes and facilitates communication, cooperation, coordination, and capacity development across the fisheries MCS, compliance and enforcement community.
Global efforts to ensure long-term sustainable management of fisheries continue to face multiple complex challenges, including the ongoing threat of IUU fishing. The activities and types of non-compliance that constitute IUU fishing are continually evolving.
The IMCS Network facilitates and delivers a range of initiatives that promote communication, cooperation and coordination and capacity development of our community.
We are about our people - those that work at the forefront of fisheries MCS, compliance and enforcement and those that contribute to this work at the national, regional and international level.
The CRAVT automatically combines vessel-related data and information from several Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and Regional Fisheries Bodies (RFBs). The CRAVT can be used to search for specific vessels, or browse groups of vessels including by flag, vessel type or RFMO or RFB. The CRAVT identifies where differences exist between RFMO or RFB records for a specific vessel. Users may also search Vessel Contacts (vessel companies and vessel masters) for a specific vessel.
