    This document contains supplementary material to the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Technical Paper titled “Assessing water availability and related economic social and nutritional contributions provided by inland capture fishery and aquaculture: an indicator-based framework” and shows results of the implementation of the designed framework of indicators in 18 selected countries in Africa and Asia. Fifteen indicators assess the water availability, economic, social and nutritional dimensions measu ring the economic, social and nutritional contributions per unit of available water resource provided by the inland fishery sector to human well-being. Each country profile provides detailed information on the sources used to compile each indicator together with the rationale used to assemble the indicator values. Important background of information on existing data sources related to the indicator framework is provided and the document identifies existing data gaps and priorities for further in vestigation.

    Policy brief
    Integrating inland capture fisheries into the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development 2022

    This brief presents an overview of the inland capture fisheries sector in the Southern African Development Community (SADC), describes historical and current trends, highlights management successes and failures, identifies common constraints and opportunities, and provides recommendations to ensure that the full potential of the sector is realised. Inland capture fisheries in the SADC region are estimated to support over a million people and contribute significantly to food and nutrition security, employment, livelihoods, and human welfare. They also provide a range of important socio-cultural and ecosystem services that contribute directly to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These benefits are particularly important in a region that faces a number of dire socioeconomic challenges including extreme poverty, acute malnutrition, and a lack of alternative livelihoods.
