ProjectTechnical Assistance for Strengthening Fisheries Research, Development and Management Capabilities - TCP/ERI/3803 2024
Also available in:
No results found.Fisheries development in Eritrea faces many challenges. For example, the waters of the southern part of the Red Sea are highly productive and rich in biodiversity, but systematic stock assessments of important species are not routinely conducted by the Ministry of Marine Resources (MMR). As a result, the size of Eritrea's fisheries resources is unknown, and without knowledge of the extent of the resource, sustainable management is difficult. The MMR needs to develop its capacity in areas such as fish stock assessment (both marine and inland), fish processing, aquaculture, small boat manufacturing and fisheries governance. The main objective of the project was to build capacity within the MMR to collect, analyze and use data for better resource management. Improving technical capacity was also essential for the successful implementation of the Fisheries Resource Management Program (FReMP) and for building a solid knowledge base for the future. -
ProjectTransforming Fisheries Management to Empower Sustainable Practices in Bangladesh - UTF/BGD/082/BGD 2024
Also available in:
No results found.The fisheries sector plays a critical role in Bangladesh's food security and economy, supporting millions of livelihoods and contributing nearly 4 percent to the country's GDP over the past decade. With exports nearing USD 638 million, fisheries are the second-largest foreign currency earner after the garment industry, employing over 18 million people, including 1.4 million women. Fish, the least carbon-intensive protein source, constitutes up to 60 percent of the animal protein consumed in Bangladesh, making the country one of the top fish consumers globally. This technical assistance project was implemented as part of a partnership between the Government of Bangladesh and the World Bank to strengthen marine fisheries management under the Sustainable Coastal and Marine Fisheries Management Project (SCMFP). The project provided critical support to the MoFL through capacity-building efforts focused on stock assessments, electronic vessel registration, catch and effort monitoring, and the development of fisheries data management systems. These technical and scientific outputs significantly impacted management decisions, ranging from community engagement to national policymaking. -
ProjectStrengthening Fisheries Management Regional Processes in the Fishery Committee for the Eastern Central Atlantic Region - GCP/RAF/522/EC 2024
Also available in:
FAO established the Fishery Committee for the Eastern Central Atlantic (CECAF) to promote the sustainable use of living marine resources within its area of jurisdiction, through the proper management and development of fisheries and fishing operations. The Scientific Sub-Committee (SSC) supports the CECAF in reviewing the outcomes and recommendations of the fisheries working groups, to formulate scientific advice for improved management and recommendations for future actions. From previous SSC sessions it emerged that CECAF’s performance was not meeting the expectations of its member nations. In view of this, an independent cost-benefit analysis (CBA) study was conducted, aimed at restructuring the CECAF to improve its delivery to members. The general objective of this European Union-funded project was to contribute to strengthening fisheries management regional processes in the CECAF region, by supporting the organization of the CECAF intersessional follow-up meeting on the outcomes of the independent CBA study, as well as the implementation of the Ninth Session of the SSC.
