ICES involvement in external projects is decided based
on our project policy and consultation with our Executive Committee
(Bureau). For more information see our project policy.
By participating in projects, we:
- provide scientific support for implementation of the Marine Strategy
Framework Directive (MSFD)
- support development of the European Integrated Maritime Policy by
developing interactions between partners (the research community,
industry, regional authorities, civil society and other stakeholders) and
delivering data/information to policy-makers
- develop fisheries management plans for the Natura 2000 sites (Marine Protected
Areas)
- manage datasets
- underpin cooperation between marine research funding agencies
