Synopsis (short abstract) The IFIP project started in January 1989 with the main obiective of promoting a more effective and rational exploitation of the fisheries resources of major water bodies of Eastern, Central and Southern Africa. The project is executed by the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO), and funded by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) for a duration of four years. There are eleven countries and three intergovernmental organisations participating in the project: Burundi, Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique,Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, Zambia, Zaire, Zimbabwe, The Communauté Economique des Pays des Grands Lacs (CEPGL), The Preferential Trade Area for Eastern and Southern African States (PTA) and the Southern African Development Coordination Conference (SADDC). The immediate objectives of the project are: (i) to strengthen regional collaboration for the rational development and management of inland fisheries, particularly with respect to shared water b odies; (ii) to provide advisory services and assist Governments in sectoral and project planning; (iii) to strengthen technical capabilities through training; and (iv) to establish a regional information base. The present document contains eleven papers dealing with various aspects of fisheries and aquaculture planning. The papers were prepared by the staff of FAO Fisheries Policy and Planning Division (FIPP) and FAO consultants for presentation at the SADOC/FAO Training Workshop on Fisher ies Planning held in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, from 15 to 24 November 1988. This training course was co:sponsored by the IFIP Project under its preparatory phase.
