The North Atlantic covers approximately 5.7 per cent of the earth’s seas. Fishing per surface unit is 2.3 times higher than the global average. This rich resource serves the economies in the North Atlantic well. But so far there has been little focus on co-operation in the management of sea resources among these countries. The aim of this project is to gather leaders from the marine industries in these countries in order to compare methods and results, and in this way strengthen the internal cooperation.
