Global warming presents a range of new challenges for local, national and global efforts to counter IUU fishing. As the number and distribution of fish populations shift in response to rising oceanic temperatures, offenders will adapt, profiting from new opportunities and altering their modus operandi.
Our research project aims to build on RUSI’s existing research by asking contributors to identify emerging issues relevant to the future of IUU fishing. Horizon scanning is a well-tested methodology and is designed to harness worldwide knowledge by employing an innovative and systematic examination of globally available information.

How to participate in this research
You do not need to be an expert in IUU fishing or climate change, or be working in either area, to participate in the horizon scan.
RUSI is especially keen to hear from individuals working across diverse disciplines and sectors who can help identify where and how possible challenges and opportunities are likely to emerge. Both individuals and organisations can make a submission, either as a named contributor or anonymously.
Access the portal
The portal provides advice on how to submit a contribution, including specific guidance on how to write a submission and the methodology behind the horizon scanning process.
The call for submissions will remain open until 10 January 2022.
