Pillars of the Sea 2: project implementing part of the SSDC Work Programme
Grant agreement VP/2018/001/0042
External contractor: Creation of a new app FisherieSpeak
Background
Social Partners created the ‘Fishery Speak’ app as part of the project ‘Towards a true socially sustainable EU Fishery: the contribution of EU social partners’ (VS/2015/0042).
It is an interactive glossary, aimed at improving on board safety as well as navigation security. It provides an overview of the main phrases used on board in relation to safety procedures. Since releasing the app, Social Partners observed that certain upgrades would make it more useful. The aim of this upgrade is therefore to add i.a. translation functionality and speech recognition. The Pillar aims at improving fishers’ knowledge and skills, it is therefore of special interest of the call. Since it was unworkable to update the existing application, the social partners decided, with the greenlight of the Commission, to create a new one.
Purpose of the contract
The contract is aimed at creating a new application “FisherieSpeak” for iOS and Android smartphone.
