About the programme
The European Maritime, Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund (EMFAF) is the fund for the EU's maritime and fisheries policies for 2021-2027.
The fund
- helps fishers transitioning to sustainable fishing
- supports coastal communities in diversifying their economies
- finances projects that create new jobs and improve quality of life along European coasts
- supports sustainable aquaculture developments
- supports the implementation of the maritime policy
The new EMFAF particularly supports small-scale coastal fisheries, young fishers and outermost regions, as well as the promotion of sustainable aquaculture. It also aims to make it easier for applicants to access financing while improving results.
