No results found.The fourth annual Coastal Fisheries Initiative (CFI) Global Partnership Consultation (GPC) was held in Dakar, Senegal, on 20-24 February 2023. All CFI Child Projects – CFI Challenge Fund (CFI-CF), CFI Global Partnership Project (CFI-GPP), CFI Indonesia, CFI Latin America (CFI-LA), and CFI West Africa (CFI-WA) – were represented, including project and partner staff, government representatives, fishing community members and private sector actors from the six CFI countries (Cabo Verde, Côte d’Ivoire, Ecuador, Indonesia, Peru and Senegal). A total of 90 participants from the six CFI countries attended the 2023 GPC, with daily attendance also including local invited dignitaries and other guests, media and support staff. Simultaneous interpretation was provided in English, French, Indonesian, Spanish and Portuguese. Around 30 participants took part virtually through Zoom video conferencing. The 2023 GPC generated useful results and insights for the Global Knowledge Products (GKPs) and advanced the discussions from the Global Exchange Visit in Tumbes (held from 29 November to 2 December 2022) on areas where CFI partners are interested in having more in-depth exchanges of information, learning, and best practices across different CFI Child Projects. The workshop included plenary presentations by participants and invited experts, panel discussions, group work activities, as well as a field visit to CFI pilot sites in the Saloum Delta to meet organizations of women seafood processors in the communities of Niodior and Dionewar, and to learn about their activities. -
ProjectFactsheetBuilding Confidence among Trading Partners through Strengthened Electronic Phytosanitary Certification - GCP/GLO/827/JPN 2021

No results found.The International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) is an international plant health agreement that aims to protect cultivated and wild plants by preventing the introduction and spread of pests. The IPPC has 184 contracting parties and is governed by the Commission on Phytosanitary Measures (CPM). Through the implementation of a separate FAO project, the IPPC has launched a new initiative to establish a global hub for electronic phytosanitary ePhyto ) certification. In order to enhance buy in and uptake beyond the vision of the ePhyto hub project, an increased and consistent demand for use of the hub was envisioned. The objective of the present project was to improve the capacity of countries to implement standards on import and export certification using an ePhyto solution and to enhance their ability for pest exclusion. The project was designed to provide complementary resources to support ePhyto hub activities, as well as complementary actions on implementation, such as capacity development workshops, training sessions and meetings, particularly in the areas of risk communication and risk management based on pest risk analysis. -
ProjectFactsheetEnhanced Resilience and Emergency Preparedness among Rural Dwellers - TCP/GHA/3803 2025
Also available in:
No results found.Rural coastal communities in Ghana are among the populations most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, such as drought, floods, rising sea levels and temperatures, the acidification of seawater and increased pests and diseases. Higher sea-surface temperatures make coastal upwelling unpredictable and reduce fishery productivity. Changes in precipitation and increased evapotranspiration can affect inland waters, impacting fish reproduction. Dwindling mangroves along the coast have exacerbated the vulnerability of coastal communities to flood and reduced reproduction in fisheries. The continued effects of climate change are expected to further reduce production and productivity of both crops and livestock, which has significant implications for hunger and poverty levels, given that 60 to 70 percent of rural dwellers are dependent on agriculture. Climate change also contributes to forced migration and displacement in coastal areas.
