Synopsis (short abstract) The Canary Current Large Marine Ecosystem (CCLME) provides vital food and economic resources to coastal populations bordering the Large Marine Ecosystem (LME), and also to much of Western Africa. It has one of the highest fisheries productions among the African large marine ecosystems and the coastal zone also provides critical fish habitat, wood from mangrove and coastal and marine space for agriculture, aquaculture, urban development, tourism and transport. The CCLME project is unique in its s trategic combination of fisheries and ecosystem governance frameworks. The project aims to enable the participating countries to address priority transboundary concerns on declining fisheries, associated biodiversity and water quality through governance reforms, investments and management programs. It will foster cooperation among project countries and contribute to a strengthened monitoring of the status of the CCLME that is based on sound science. Cape Verde, Gambia, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Mau ritania, Morocco and Senegal are all committed to working together in the CCLME project to address the degradation of the Canary Current Large Marine Ecosystem caused by over-fishing, habitat modification and changes in water quality by adoption of an ecosystem approach.

    L’élaboration et l’adoption de mesures permettant d’atténuer les effets négatifs du chalutage côtier des crevettes exigent des données fiables sur l’importance des captures accessoires, des rejets et des impacts sur l’écosystème, ainsi que sur leurs mécanismes sous-jacents. Le projet "Réduction de l’impact du chalutage de crevettes en réduisant les captures accessoires et rejets, et en modifiant la gestion" du CCLME a été conçu pour élaborer et adopter des mesures d’atténuation des effets de cha lutage crevettier sur les autres ressources halieutiques et écosystème de la zone CCLME. Une des principales activités de ce projet est l’élaboration d’une méthodologie standard de collecte et d’enregistrement des données sur les captures accessoires et des rejets à bord des navires de pêche commerciaux, principalement les chalutiers crevettiers opérant en Afrique de l’Ouest.

    Report of the Technical Workshop on Deep-sea Fisheries and Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems of the Eastern Central Atlantic, Dakar, Senegal, 8-10 November 2016 / Rapport de l’Atelier technique sur la pêche en eaux profondes et les écosystèmes marins vulnérables dans l’Atlantique Centre-Est, Dakar, Sénégal, 8-10 novembre 2016 2017

    The FAO Technical Workshop on Deep-sea Fisheries and Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems of the Eastern Central Atlantic took place in Dakar, Senegal, from 8 to 10 November 2016. The meeting was attended by 32 participants who contributed in their individual capacities to the discussions on the subjects of deep-sea fisheries and benthic habitats of the CECAF region. The participants had backgrounds in fisheries management, research, environment, fishing industry, non-governmental organizations, regiona l organizations, and projects. Invited experts provided case studies and examples of deep-sea fisheries management and processes to protect vulnerable marine ecosystems (VMEs) from the north, western-central and south Atlantic regions. The three-day workshop was organized into two main parts, with 2.5 days dedicated to discussions on deep-sea fisheries, and VMEs in the CECAF area (Part 1), and a half-day session specifically dedicated to awareness raising on sponges (Part 2). The deep-sea fisher ies and VME component of the workshop aimed to support the implementation of the FAO International Guidelines on the Management of Deep-sea Fisheries in the High Seas (adopted 2008) in the region, and to increase knowledge and share experiences of the importance of addressing potential impacts from deep-sea bottom contact fisheries on VMEs. Overviews were provided on current global and regional instruments, processes and practices for the management of deep-sea fisheries and protection of VMEs, and their relevance to the CECAF region discussed. Deep-sea fisheries in EEZs and ABNJ were characterized and current available information on benthic habitats were reviewed. This component of the workshop resulted in a suite of advice and recommendations for the CECAF Scientific Sub-Committee to consider for recommendations to the next Committee meeting. The Sponges component of the workshop addressed the objectives of Work Package 8.2 of the SponGES project “Deep-sea Sponge Grounds Ecosystems of the North Atlantic: an integrated approach towards their preservation and sustainable exploitation”, which aims to promote and facilitate dialogue and knowledge transfer between scientists, managers, policy-makers, and stakeholders from the Atlantic region on SponGES, through round-table dialogues.

    本期Unasylva杂志旨在展示森林景观恢复（FLR）的机会和进展，这些机会和进展能扩大恢复的规模，以实现"波恩挑战"及其他国家和国际承诺（可持续发展目标（SDGs），《生物多样性公约》(CBD）2020年后议程、《联合国防治荒漠化公约》（UNCCD）土地退化零增长、《联合国气候变化框架公约》（UNFCCC）下的《巴黎协定》），并满足2021-2030年联合国生态系统恢复十年的需求。 杂志涉及与各受众相关的主题：i) 与所谓的 "一切照旧 "做法不同的旗舰恢复倡议，这些旗舰倡议能输送更多的资金，更好地赋予当地利益相关者权力，并通过合作伙伴联盟提供更多的技术援助；ii) 可以扩展森林景观恢复的技术进步，由于不同的原因（低成本、适应性、与许多生态系统和环境的相关性、易于实施等），这些技术进步很有可能成为主流。iii) 利于恢复的因素，即协调、政策环境、资源、知识和能力，这些因素都为在当地采取行动创造了有利条件。
