Fisheries Information Centre

The Estonian fisheries sector did not have a single united information centre where fishermen, fishing industry companies or fish farmers could get professional training and assistance. Therefore, in April 2011, the Fisheries Information Centre was established as part of the Department of Fish Biology and Fisheries at the Estonian Marine Institute.

The Fisheries Information Centre’s aims the distribution of scientific and legislative information, to encourage good practices, to influence the lifelong learning process of the Fisheries sector and to provide information which will lead to the sustainable and economical management of the Sector’s enterprises and enhance the sectors competitiveness.
