Correct Answer : June 5th
International Day for the Fight against Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing is organized every year on 5th June. The day is the opportunity to draw attention to the threats posed by IUU fishing activities to the sustainable use of fisheries resources as well as to ongoing efforts to fight these activities.
According to the
UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), IUU fishing activities are responsible for the loss of
11–26 million tonnes of fish each year, which is estimated to have an economic value of
10–23 billion USD. IUU fishing activities threatens sustainable management of our marine resources, a situation further exacerbated by overfishing..
