We're happy to announce that the joint web-site of the ITF/IUF Fisheries Programme is live on both global union federations' main pages. You can access the joint site through the "Fisheries" section under the work areas & sectors on the right column of the front page of the IUF site.

The joint site will include news and campaigns of both ITF/IUF affiliates organising fisheries industry as well as the joint campaign material to be launched within the implication of the Programme.

The joint fisheries web-site is a very good example of 2 global union federations working together to achieve the common objectives in fisheries industry defined as "from catcher to counter".

A key part of this unprecedented trans-industry initiative is a quick survey that we kindly request all ITF/IUF affiliates in the fishing industry complete.

Please visit the joint web-site here [1] and fill out the survey here [2].
