+# STAR
+
+Stock Assessment Results (STAR) is a new framework to organize
+[GFCM](http://www.fao.org/gfcm/en/) stock assessment results.
+
+It streamlines and automates the **information flow** from stock assessments to
+scientific advice, strengthens **quality assurance** and **data dissemination**.
+
+The central part of the framework will be the STAR database, scheduled to launch
+in 2021. It will serve as a foundation to provide a variety of
+quality-controlled data products related to the management of fisheries in the
+Mediterranean and the Black Sea.
