Book (stand-alone)MCS for Patrol Vessels Course 2012
Also available in:
No results found.The MCS for Patrol Vessels course has been designed to form one of a set of one-week courses aimed at increasing effective fisheries compliance in the Eastern and Southern African and Indian Ocean (ESA-IO) Region. The courses are intended to have a wide and general application across the varied conditions and capacities in the region. To facilitate this, a system of course development based on competency based training has been utilised. This works through blocks of learning called 'learning out comes' that are then broken down into 'learning tasks'. This approach, whilst stating clearly what the content of the course will be and what a student should understand, also leaves flexibility for the instructor to adapt the learning tasks to be appropriate for local situations. -
Book (stand-alone)The prosecution of offences under fisheries legislation in the lOC Smartfish project region: class notes for the development of a training course for prosecutors 2012
Also available in:
No results found.These course notes intend to provide a broad and generic background to the prosecution of fisheries offences in the IOC Smartfish project region. The challenge of such a task is not only the fact that there are 19 different sets of legislation, but also that the countries have different legal systems. The intention, and hope, is that the countries which have a need for a more comprehensive and country-specific guide to the prosecution of fisheries offences, will use these class notes as a backgr ound and framework to develop a guide. -
Book (stand-alone)Comprehensive review of MCS Capacity in the ESA-IO Region 2012
Also available in:
No results found.Illegal Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) fishing is a severe global problem and one of the main obstructions to the achievement of sustainable fisheries that results in loss of revenue, jobs and livelihoods. The countries of the Southern and Eastern Africa and the Indian Ocean Region (ESA-IO) are particularly hampered with IUU fishing and one of the limiting factors in overcoming IUU fishing is lack of adequate human and institutional capacity and equipment in the area of monitoring, control and surveillance (MCS). The problem of IUU fishing has been acknowledged in various policy commitments that are in force in the region with pledges made to fight it. The SmartFish programme is an initiative set up to promote regional integration through practical implementation of sound fisheries initiatives. It has a strong component on MCS and within this area has undertaken this comprehensive review of the capacity required to implement effective MCS at a national and regional level in order to provide recommendations for how the SmartFish programme can assist in filling these gaps in MCS capacity. The review focused on seven countries (Comoros, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius the Seychelles, Somalia and the United Republic of Tanzania) in order to analysis and benchmark the MCS capacity and to identify gaps - these countries were considered representative of the region in terms of fisheries systems and capacity levels (Chapters 2 to 8). The picture that emerged showed that by country Sey chelles and Mauritius had the strongest capacity for MCS in the region, with Kenya, Madagascar, and the United Republic of Tanzania having partial to weak capacity and the Comoros and Somalia having the weakest capacity.
