Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.

2. Once again I am delighted to share
with you this snapshot of a very
busy and inspiring year of delivery.
2014/15 did bring opportunities but
it also delivered a big challenge in
making things add up financially.
My fellow board members, and
the senior team, have steered the
organisation in a professional and
efficient way and we have attained
the position we had planned, so my thanks to them for their
hard work and dedication.
On behalf of the board I would like to thank our staff and
volunteers for their sterling work in delivering our ambition
of changing places, changing lives.
I am very proud that during 2014/15 Groundwork NE &
Cumbria gained much recognition by winning several key
accolades which included:-
• Jellystone Park being crowned sustainable Project of
the year in the Building and Engineer awards
• Our very own Kate Culverhouse winning Key woman
of the year in the North East Woman of the year
entrepreneur awards
• The organisation being crowned best environmental
project in the Durham/Wearside business awards.
This is my last Chairman’s words as I will stand down at the
AGM 2015. I have been proud to serve as Chairman of this
dynamic and inspiring organisation, and subject to election
intend to stay as part of the board. I wish my successor
all the best, as there are definitely even more exciting
opportunities and times ahead.

2014/15 is our most challenging
year to date. After thirty years of
central government funding, the
Trust no longer receives the grant
which enabled it to develop such
a wide range of local community
led projects across the North
East. Our accounts highlight
this transition, as we used our
reserves to the tune of £800k,
to fund longer term programmes, with returns to be seen
in future years and to continue to fund local development
opportunities. I would like to thank the board of trustees in
making this difficult decision. This allowed us to continue
delivering the services and activities that meet the needs
of disadvantaged individuals and communities, from those
who are long term unemployed and furthest removed from
the labour market; engaging disengaged young people, to
those who benefit from using their environment to improve
their mental and physical well being.
Having said this, we feel confident in our future, and having
embarked on our thirtieth year, we look forward to our next
thirty years and, as ever, are up for the new and emerging
challenges this will continue to bring us. We look forward to
working with our partners, old and new, in helping tackle the
issues faced by people and places across the North East
and Cumbria. I hope you enjoy our review.

Improving
people’s
prospects
During this year we continued with the
growth of our employment contracts,
increasing our geographical coverage by
delivering in Cumbria and Tees Valley.
We increased our youth delivery by
expanding our National Citizens Service
contract.
We were also able to commence a
refresh of our volunteering offer as
the absorption, in January 2015 of the
volunteering charity 2D brought
in additional resource that not
only benefitted us but also the
communities we work with.
James overcame a variety of obstacles whilst
on our Motiv8 programme, designed to engage
NEET (Not in Education, Employment or
Training) young people in practical hands-on
learning. With the support from our Youth Team
he has transformed from being someone who
was easily distracted and lacking in confidence
into a hardworking, self-motivated young man.
Stuart, an enthusiastic and outgoing person, joined our Employment programme in Cumbria.
His ambition was to become a Sound Technician. His ambitions were fulfilled when Groundwork
secured him a placement at the Sands Centre, a place that Stuart was already familiar with
and that provided an outlet for his creativity. Stuart has made fantastic progress so far and has
been working with Example’s roadies and Alan Carr’s roadies and many more.
Stuart now aspires to run his own sound company and would love to take on an apprentice to
“give them a chance like [he] had”.
“I have changed a lot thanks to Groundwork.
I feel so much better about myself and I
am now looking forward to the future with
renewed confidence and I hope to gain
qualifications that will help me get a job.”
With the help of our Youth Team, Jack Haywood from Durham
turned his life around after becoming disruptive and his school
attendance became poor.
We worked with Jack to help him alter his attitude and consider
what he wanted out of education. He is now studying Health
and Personal Care at college and as a result of the residential
course has a new positive attitude to learning.
“I am now
looking
forward to
the future”
Jack
“I thoroughly
enjoyed my
placement at the
Sands Centre, It’s
my perfect job!”
Stuart
We are passionate about…
“You don’t realise
what you are
achieving until the
staff point it out to
you and then you
think, wow I’ve
done that!” James
4. Andy, 32, had been out of work for 8 months
before getting a placement with Groundwork
at Gateshead Nursery.
Before starting on the programme with us, Anthony,
46, had never worked since leaving school. His
transformation within weeks was great to witness.
He now looks after a team of 5 or so individuals.
“At first I didn’t want to come here but
after a few weeks something changed
and I now really love it. I love being part
of a growing team, learning new skills
and there’s an excellent atmosphere at
the Nursery. It’s certainly given me an
opportunity to improve my employment
prospects and dedicated time to job
search and fill out applications.” Andy
“I’ve never been employed before
but coming here has made a
massive difference. I love it here,
love getting mucked in and working
alongside other people as part of a
team. I’m up every morning at 5am
ready to go to the Nursery. It’s really
helped me feel more prepared for
work” Anthony

As the level of activity on the site increases with the influx of new groups and individuals we are excited to see
what can be produced in the way of fruit, veg and other produce and we also hope to see as many people
benefit from the range of activities and find employment as a result of their time with us.
We support long term unemployed people through
our Employment programmes one of which is hosted
at Gateshead Nursery. Gateshead Nursery provides
the perfect platform for employment clients to become
job ready.

Hope’s Story
When Hope joined our Play Programme she had
been diagnosed with selective mutism. Hope was
made to feel safe and comfortable at the Play
sessions, she could move freely around the room
and choose her own line of play.
Whilst being initially shy, Hope began to develop
friendships with other children. With the support of
Groundwork staff, gradually she began to speak
more and more, even outside the play sessions.
Hope’s confidence continues to grow and grow as
a result of attending our Play Programme.

Creating
better
places
2014/15 was a year of recognition for our
Creating Better Places delivery. We won a
number of awards for various landscape
regeneration projects including Jellystone
Park in Grove Hill, which won a national
honour - the Sustainable Project of the Year
at the Builder and Engineer Awards.
We were also acclaimed in three categories
at the County Durham Environment Awards,
topping off the year by winning the Green
Award at Durham and Wearside Business
Awards.
River Tees Rediscovered
We received confirmation of a grant of £1.89m from the
National Lottery via the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) for the
River Tees Rediscovered Landscape Partnership project in
June 2014.
Thirteen Contract
We celebrated winning a highly competitive tender for
a social housing association, Thirteen Group, to deliver
more than £4.6m of environmental improvements in
Stockton, Middlesbrough and Hartlepool as part of a five
year investment plan.
The improvements spanned 11 projects across Stockton,
Thornaby and Middlesbrough. The wide range of
schemes included small enclosed courtyard gardens,
large demolition sites and problematic areas of public
open space. Each required a tailored design solution to
ensure the best fit for each local community.
“Anson House feels safer and nicer
to walk through now. I am really
blown away that my views were

Heart of Teesdale Programme
Care and Conservation in the
Local Woodlands
Schools and colleges, as well as corporate
volunteers from national organisations such as
EE and Northumbrian Water have been involved
with us on a wide range of environmental projects
within the Heart of Teesdale programme.
Through weekly conservation volunteers programmes at
Ashington Community Woodland and Pegswood Community
Wood, 80 regular volunteers identified new learning skills
linked to the care and conservation of the local woodlands.
Reception children swap the classroom
for a woodland in Forest Schools.
The group learn about natural
habitats and wildlife.
“I really enjoyed the day, when I got
home I promptly sat down and fell
asleep on the sofa, just shows what
hard work and fresh air does for the
soul!” Corporate volunteer from EE after
taking part in Rhododendron clearance at

Promoting
greener
living and
working
In 2014/15 we continued to make a
significant difference in developing
ecosystems and supporting biodiversity
at our multi-award winning Elba Park in
Sunderland.
We also tackled resource efficiency
via the Waste Awareness Campaign in
Partnership with North Tyneside council.
Community Waste Education
May 2014 saw the installation of the eagerly anticipated
new wind turbine, located at The Greenhouse business
centre in Annfield Plain.
The high yield turbine is only the third of its kind in the
UK producing more than one million KWh of electricity
per year, sufficient to power the equivalent of 250 homes.
It currently provides all the electricity demands of our
Greenhouse office complex and also powers operations
at Lanchester Wines who own the turbine. Any unused
electricity is sold to the National Grid.
Campground Visitor and Education Centre in Sunderland is a purpose
built facility for a programme of community waste education activity. We
were successful in winning a contract to provide education sessions
in the visitor centre as part of the South Tyne and Wear Waste
Management Partnership. We delivered workshops to various
schools in Sunderland to help them learn more about recycling
and upcycling.
“The energy audit by Groundwork
prompted us to embrace a green agenda”
Tony Clearly, founder of Lanchester Wines.
New Wind Turbine at the
Greenhouse Business Centre
“I am a great believer in the benefits
of learning outside the classroom and
the amazing educational opportunities
available at the Visitor and Education
Centre make learning about waste
and recycling fun and engaging for all
participants” Rebecca Cummins, class

Healthy Parks
Healthy Minds
In both Sunderland and Middlesbrough, our
Communities Living Sustainably projects support
businesses to reduce energy consumption and prevent
pollution. Groundwork’s Environmental Business Services
support businesses with energy audits, sustainable travel plans and
developing and implementing Environmental Management Systems which
ensure legal compliance as well as promoting key business principles.
Kirstie was living with long
term depression, anxiety
and ME. Upon hearing
about the Healthy Parks,
Healthy Minds project, she
referred herself onto the
programme.
The Healthy Parks Healthy Minds project allowed me to be less
focussed on my illness. I have enjoyed meeting all the different
people, everyone is really friendly and we are all united at the
allotment. It connects us all and there is a sense of belonging,
a sense of purpose and contributing to something. Making a
difference when you feel low really does help” Kirstie
