Dear MARMAM community, I am reaching out to you on behalf of my colleagues from the Life CIBBRiNA<https://cibbrina.eu/> consortium, a 6-year EU-funded project that focuses on developing and implementing best practices in reducing bycatch across the North Atlantic, Baltic and Mediterranean regions. A special focus is given to Endangered, Threatened and Protected (ETP) species and relevant fisheries in these areas whilst working collaboratively with fishers, authorities, scientists and other relevant stakeholders to co-create sustainable solutions for the bycatch issue. Within CIBBRiNA, my colleagues and I are working towards an online mitigation toolkit which will be based on a comprehensive database collating information on all bycatch mitigation attempts and approaches across global fisheries in order to inform all relevant stakeholders. With this in mind, we kindly request if you could share any relevant information through our online questionnaire<https://rvo.survalyzer.eu/cibbrinamitigationmeasures>. The questionnaire is divided into 8 distinct challenges characterized by specific fishery and ETP species of interest. Please read the instructions carefully and note that we might contact you additionally in order to ask for more details on the provided information. We would also appreciate if you could forward this email to any potential and relevant expert or party with relevant information. If you have any further questions about this questionnaire, do not hesitate to contact us via email (cibbrina@minlnv.nl<mailto:cibbrina@minlnv.nl>) with a subject "Bycatch questionnaire".
