Synopsis (short abstract) The purpose of this tutorial is to demonstrate the project submission process and functionality of the Global Capacity Development Portal (GCDP) from an internal perspective, for usage and contribution by both internal and external entities with an interest in collaborating and contributing in the fight against illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing (IUU fishing) by enhancing project visibility. The tutorial itself covers the entire workflow, from account registration to project deletion, detailing all the steps required to facilitate the typical project submission, while also providing tips and troubleshooting techniques to assist the user through any potential issues or difficulties they may face. Firstly, the reader is introduced to the initiation phase, detailing the steps that potential project contributors must first take to register for an account and declare their institutions, including the requirement for individual account assessments and verification by the GCDP team. Consequently, the tutorial transitions to the upload phase, whereby guidance on the login and project creation process is given, including a detailed overview of the required fields and supplementary project information, as applicable. The reader is then walked through the final steps of the upload process, including the final project verification stage, ensuring that the project adheres to the portal’s eligibility criteria. Finally, the tutorial concludes at the management phase, detailing instructions on the management of such projects, including the modification of project content and contact information, supplementation and management of project resources, and, project deletion. Administrative guidance on the management of user information is also provided.

    National and regional efforts to conserve and manage fish stocks are undermined by illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing, which consequently inhibits progress towards the sustainability in the fisheries sector that is aimed for under SDG 14 (Life below water). To fight, deter and ultimately end this type of fishing, an international framework made up of a series of instruments and tools has been developed. The most important of these is the Port State Measures Agreement (PSMA). This Project, which was designed to support FAO’s Global Programmeon the implementation of the PSMA, aimed to improve the capacity of fisheries sector stakeholders in Colombia and Panama to effectively implement port state measures (PSMs) as well as other complementary measures and tools, and to carry out monitoring, control and surveillance (MCS) operations to combat IUU fishing.

    Report of Capacity development Workshop on the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication for Indigenous Peoples of Central America 2019
    Also available in:
    For centuries, fishing has been an activity of great importance for indigenous peoples. They inhabit and relate to water ecosystems, which conserve their cultural heritage, food sovereignty (the right to access healthy and culturally appropriate food) and in many cases are a main source of income. In Central America the situation is not different: today indigenous peoples live in more than 75% of the marine-coastal zones of the Caribbean Sea and extensive areas adjacent to continental waters and the Pacific Ocean, and have in fishing their main incomes. Precisely these areas present the highest indicators of poverty and malnutrition in the region. Taking this context into account, FAO and FILAC joined forces to promote the implementation of the voluntary guidelines for the sustainability of small-scale fisheries (DV-PPE) in the context of food security and the eradication of poverty. They organized the international course "Voluntary Guidelines for the Sustainability of Small Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and the Eradication of Poverty for Indigenous Peoples of Central America". During the course, government representatives, indigenous leaders and indigenous fishermen from six countries (Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Panama and Nicaragua) gathered to learn, share, advocate, dialogue and build a roadmap to implement in their countries.

    Enhancing the capacity of the Turkish International Forestry Training Centre
    GCP/SEC/024/TUR
    2025
    Also available in:
    Forests cover 23 million hectares of Türkiye's land, and the General Directorate of Forestry (GDF) has long been at the forefront of forest fire management. However, the devastating 2021 wildfire season, which burned over 1,700 square kilometres, underscored the need for enhanced capacity. To address this, the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry of Türkiye and GDF are working to modernize and expand the Turkish International Forestry Training Centre.Under the FAO–Türkiye Partnership Programmes, "Enhancing the Capacity of the Turkish International Forestry Training Centre" project strengthens the Centre’s ability to provide cutting-edge forestry training. It enriches the curriculum with specialized topics, promotes gender-sensitive content, and broadens the scope from national to regional and international levels. With an upgraded and sustainable platform, the Centre aims to share Türkiye’s vast forestry expertise, particularly with countries in Central Asia, supporting global efforts in forest restoration and fire management. This flyer provides essential information about the project, including its scope, budget, and target beneficiaries.
