La semana pasada se publicaba “The 2018 annual Economic Report on EU Blue Economy”, el informe en el que la Comisión Europea realiza una revisión de la situación de la economía azul en Europa, destacando su gran potencial en términos de inversión y de desarrollo socioeconómico. La CE ha analizado el estado actual y las tendencias futuras de los 6 sectores establecidos, y ha identificado nuevos sectores emergentes, que supondrán a su vez nuevas oportunidades de negocio y de crecimiento sostenible.
Los resultados del informe revelan que en algunos Estados Miembro, la economía azul ha crecido de manera más acentuada que su propia economía nacional, como es el caso de España.
Además de ofrecer datos económicos, en este informe, la CE ha puesto en valor el esfuerzo realizado por el Puerto de Vigo y la Comunidad Blue Growth en el fomento de la economía azul, describiendo en uno de sus capítulos (caso de estudio 1) el Plan Blue Growth, puesto en marcha en 2016. A lo largo del caso de estudio, se describe el proceso de implementación del Plan Blue Growth en el Puerto de Vigo, así como sus objetivos y principales hitos alcanzados.

Fresh Fish• The 4th edition of the international fisheries inspection training course has been inaugurated to support the implementation of the "Port State Measures Agreement" (PSMA). • Seventeen fisheries inspectors and officers from seven Caribbean countries will participate, gaining tools and practices over the next three weeks to apply in their respective countries in their efforts to promote sustainable fishing. • Carlos Botana advocates for "joint efforts at all levels of control and inspection, from the origin to the destination of products, to contribute to a viable fishing industry that provides livelihoods for those of us living in marine-coastal areas." • Over 70 inspectors from around the world (Africa, America, etc.) have been trained at the Port of Vigo in recent years to prevent, deter, and eliminate illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing.
