Fishing has a strong tradition in the coastal regions and in some inland areas of Germany. CLLD in Germany aims to better take into account the multi-sectoral needs of fisheries areas (tourism, heritage, local products, etc.); to develop capacity and know-how; to simplify administrative procedures; and to promote networking with other regions and the sharing of information.

FLAG cooperation in Germany is mainly viewed as a transversal tool to strengthen the impact of other areas of FLAG work. It is included in the German EMFF Operational Programme (OP) but is not an operational priority.

Le GALPA Sud-Leipzig soutient cette initiative de redéploiement dynamique d’un ancien bassin minier, reconverti en « base de pêche » pour pêcheurs amateurs et professionnels. L’idée est d’accroître la production halieutique et de développer davantage le tourisme local dans la région du lac de Störmthal.

The Fisch vom Kutter web portal for the distance sale of freshly landed catches from the German Baltic Coat vessels is a success story that started in 2009. FARNET published a Good Practice example during the project’s first programming period.

This project shows how to bring together preservation of cultural heritage with present needs of fishermen.

A response to low awareness and understanding of fisheries sees a concerted effort to strengthen educational work on the fishing industry along the North Sea coast of Lower Saxony, using different locations for an enhanced learning experience.

By engaging local fishermen in the development and testing of environmentally-friendly fish traps, the Baltic Sea FLAG is paving the way for sustainable fisheries along its coast in a wider context of adding value to the local catch.

Sur la côte de la mer du Nord de Basse-Saxe, des pêcheurs artisanaux s’associent à une ONG de protection environnementale pour collecter les déchets marins et analyser des pistes pour l’élimination et le recyclage de leurs composants en plastique.

The sixteenth edition of the FARNET magazine explores sustainability, blue growth and the circular economy from a CLLD perspective. What have we learnt in the ten years since a CLLD approach was first introduced in fisheries areas under the EMFF? How can we position fisheries CLLD for the future? Is the circular economy key? These are just some of the questions addressed in this thought-provoking edition.

FARNET's fifth transnational seminar of the 2014-2020 programming period took place on 20-22 November 2017. The seminar aimed to raise the capacity of FLAGs to foster integration of aquaculture into their territory and stimulated exchange and peer learning between FLAGs interested in supporting their local aquaculture sector.
