Commissioner Kadis takes part in the event "Fishermen of Tomorrow: Horizon 2050"

Tomorrow, Commissioner Kadis will take part in the event "Fishermen of Tomorrow: Horizon 2050", organised by the Commission.

The event, which will be held in Brussels and also accessible online, will mark the conclusion of an EU-wide foresight study on the Fishermen of Tomorrow, launched in October 2023. The main findings of the study will be presented, with an opening statement by Commissioner Kadis, followed by a panel discussion discussing the results of the study.

Published on 7 January, the study examines the changing role of fishermen, the challenges they may face and their opportunities up to 2050. The study developed four different scenarios for the future as well as future profiles of fishermen, based on climate and market dynamics. The findings of the study will then help the Commission to develop transition pathways for 2050.
