The report provides the outcomes of series of national workshops organized by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Fishery Committee for the Eastern Central Atlantic (CECAF) and the Fisheries Committee for the West Central Gulf of Guinea (FCWC), under the project “Capacity Building on Data Collection and Management for Member States.” Conducted between 28 April and 5 July 2021, the workshops took place in Nigeria, Benin, Togo, Ghana, Côte d’Ivoire, and Liberia, with the support of FAO’s Regional Office for Africa (RAF), national FAO country offices, and technical inputs from FAO’s Fisheries and Resources Monitoring System (FIRMS) team. The primary objective of these workshops was to strengthen and harmonize fisheries data collection and reporting systems across FCWC member states. Key outcomes included a diagnostic of current fisheries reporting practices, identification of national capacities and gaps in both industrial and small-scale fisheries data, and prioritization of actions to align national data systems with FCWC, CECAF, and FAO reporting standards to improve data collection and collaboration across the FCWC subregion.
