Convocar a partes interesadas/creaci�n de redesAESG/ZSL attended the 'Next Steps to Strengthen Stewardship of the Sargasso Sea' to input on the development of a research plan, as well as present how both the European and American eel act as a flagship species for this unique marine ecosystem.Completed
Influencia pol�tica/promoci�n de pol�ticasThird European Eel Range State meeting under CMS - ZSL, CEFAS, CMS secretariat, Sargasso Sea Commission and others met to discuss how CMS can support the recovery of the European eel, with a view to using thi sas a template for other eel species.On-going

Actividades t�cnicas/cient�ficasZSL/AESG attende the 18th CITES CoP to input to discussion on anguillid eels and to work with Parties to craft the language of Decisions to be implemented over the coming three years. Further we held a joint workshop with JNCC, CEFAS and the CITES secretariat to outline progress on implementing the CITES listing of the European eel and how this impacts non-listed species.Completed
Indique cuáles han sido los resultados/logros obtenidos en el marco de las actividades realizadas: 
Anguillid eels are receiving significant attention in policy and public fora, particularly in relation to illegal fishing and trade. We are working to ensure science is fed in to these discussions and that focus is spread across all species, not simply those in trade.
¿Qué esfuerzos se están llevando a cabo para superar dichos obstáculos?: 
The co-ordination within and between countries in relation to management and policy of anguillid eels could be strengthened. We are aiming to address this by working directly with governments and relevant RFBs.
