No results found.The 2nd meeting of the Regional Working Group on Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) Fishing, was held in Barbados in the period 19 - 21 September 2017. Thirty-five fisheries Monitoring, Control and Surveillance (MCS) officers, fisheries managers and other experts from 16 WECAFC members participated in this meeting. At the meeting, the MCS officers were updated on the International Plan of Action to prevent, deter and eliminate IUU fishing (IPOAIUU), the Global Record of Fishing Vessels, Refrigerated Transport Vessels and Supply Vessels, and specific measures needed in the Caribbean region to effectively reduce IUU fishing. This technical meeting also discussed and agreed on various essential fisheries management measures, such as on fishing vessel marking and identification, the establishment of a regional fishing vessel record and regional IUU vessel lists. These measures will, once adopted by WECAFC allow the fisheries inspectors, coast guard, navy and port officials to easily identify fishing vessels and see if the vessels have the necessary authorizations to fish.
Este es el informe de la 2ª reunión del Grupo de Trabajo Regional sobre la Pesca Ilegal No, Declarada y no Reglamentada, realizado en Barbados, el 19, 20 y 21 de septiembre de 2017. La reunión sirvió como la 2ª reunión del Grupo de Trabajo sobre la Pesca Ilegal, No Documentada, y No Reglamentada de la Comisión de Pesca para el Atlántico Centro Occidental (COPACO), el Mecanismo Regional de Pesca del Caribe (CRFM), la Organización del Sector Pesquero y Acuícola del Istmo Centroamericano (OSPESCA). Expertos de 16 países de la COPACO, e igualmente, expertos internacionales participaron de TM Tracking. Personal y personas de apoyo de la FAO también contribuyeron a la reunión. La participación en la reunión estuvo limitada por los dos huracanes de categoría 5, Irma y María, que afectaron varios países del Caribe, e igualmente a la Florida en las semanas anteriores a la reunión, e hizo que viajar a la reunión desde algunas de las islas, fuera imposible. El Grupo de Trabajo les deseó a los países que no pudieron asistir, una recuperación exitosa de la devastación que los afectó. Esta reunión fue posible por el generoso apoyo financiero recibido de parte de la DG Mare de la Unión Europea. Apoyo adicional fue recibido del Fondo del Proyecto GCP/SLC/001/WBK – Picudos del Caribe, coordinado por el Banco Mundial, financiado por el GEF, e implementado por la FAO y la COPACO. El Ministerio de Agricultura, Alimentación, Pesca, y Manejo de Recursos Acuáticos del Gobierno de Barbados fue también co-anfitrión de esta reunión.

ArticleJournal articleEthnobotanical survey of less-known indigenous edible tree Diospyros mespiliformis (Ebenaceae) in Benin, West Africa
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022
2022Also available in:
No results found.African ebony (Diospyros mespiliformis) is a priority indigenous fruit tree that has several uses but its use pattern and conservation are little documented across various ethnic groups in Benin. These surveys carried out in 2018 aimed at provide a critical appraisal of the existing knowledge on the ethno-botanical value of these resources among 317 registered informants. Data on socio demographic characteristics and uses of these plant resources was collected based on oral interview using Kobo Collect tool and a well-structured questionnaire from 11 ethnic groups. Quantitative analysis techniques including Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA), Hierarchical Clustering (HCPC) and beta-regression (beta-reg)) were performed to evaluaterelative usefulness of different tree organs and the extent to which quantitative indexes give similar results. Results revealed three clusters with diverse uses of D. mespiliformis. The main uses categories of African ebony were food-fodder, medicinal, construction and magico-religious. The results showed also significant difference in use between ethnic groups, generations and socio-professional categories (P < 0.05). However, gender, religion and educational background of informants were not a determinant of local knowledge (P > 0.05). In addition, diseases treated with D. mespiliformis werefever, dressing wound, malaria and infertility. Our findings suggest that local availability of D. mespiliformis should prioritize the fruit and the wood which are the most valued parts of the plant. In order to fully explore the plant’s potential, this resource needs development of integrated cultivation approach, safety evaluation and detailed ethno-pharmacological studies because it is not excluded that interesting medicinal properties setting in light by research permit to finalize new drug.
