About the EcoScope Project

The EcoScope Project aims to promote effective and efficient, ecosystem-based approach to fisheries management. EcoScope will develop 3 key products: an interoperable platform (the EcoScope Platform), a robust decision-making toolbox (the EcoScope Toolbox), and a series of online courses (the EcoScope Academy). These tools will be available through a single public portal (EcoScopium), to promote an efficient ecosystem-based approach to the management of fisheries and achieve maximum and continuous participation of stakeholders
