DocumentEvaluation reportEU FAO Forest Law Enforcement and Governance Trade (FLEGT) Programme (GCP /GLO/395/EC)
Mid Term Evaluation, March 2015
2015Also available in:
No results found.This report presents the findings of the mid-term evaluation (MTE) of GCP/GLO/395/EC “EU FAO Forest Law Enforcement and Governance Trade (FLEGT) Programme”. The overall goal of the evaluation is to identify the contribution of the FAO FLEGT programme to the implementation of the EU FLEGT Action Plan. The programme was assessed using the standard, internationally accepted evaluation criteria of relevance, efficiency, effectiveness, impact, and sustainability. The evaluation was conducted between October 2014 and February 2015 with fieldwork undertaken in Ghana, Uganda, Cameroon, Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, Vietnam and Thailand. The evaluation methodology included literature review, expert interviews, focal-group discussions as well as an online survey sent to all former and current grantees from both phases of support. -

Illegal logging and the associated trade break down carbon-rich forests, interfere with sustainable forest management, threaten Livelihoods and contribute to the loss of biodiversity. Illegal logging represents about 30 to 100 billion USD annually or 10 to 30% of the global timber trade. FLEGT FAO Programme has supported more than 200 projects in some 40 countries producing tropical timber since 2008

Book (series)Technical studyTrends in oceanic captures and clustering of large marine ecosystems
Two studies based on the FAO capture database
2003Also available in:
No results found.Species items reported in the FAO capture fisheries production database have been classified as oceanic or living on the continental shelf. Catch trends of oceanic species, further subdivided into epipelagic and deep-water species, have been analysed over a 50-year period (1950-99) while statistics for shelf species have been re-assigned to large marine ecosystems (LMEs) for a shorter period (1990-99) and used to investigate catch patterns among the various LMEs. Oceanic fisheries constitut e, both in terms of number of species items and in quantities of recent catches, about 10% of global marine catches. Catches of epipelagic species (mostly tunas) and of deep-water species (mostly Gadiformes) have been continuously increasing and reached 8.6 million tons in 1999. Oceanic catches by distant water fleets (DWFs), mostly targeting tunas, have been decreasing in recent years although their share of total DWF catches has increased due to the concurrent drop of non-oceanic DWF catches. Trends of oceanic catches and the contribution of DWFs are examined for all FAO marine fishing areas which show different patterns, mainly depending upon whether they are temperate or tropical areas. Eleven clusters of LMEs have been identified on the basis of similarities in their catch composition classified into eleven species groupings. For each cluster, the distinguishing catch pattern and recent trends by species groupings in each LME are discussed, and considered in relation to infor mation on primary productivity and the abiotic characteristics of the LME.
