ProjectFactsheetStrengthening Regional Fisheries Management and Best-Practice Approaches for Fisheries and Aquaculture Development - GCP/SLC/217/EC 2024
Also available in:
No results found.Fisheries using anchored/moored fish aggregating devices (aFADs) in the Caribbean have grown substantially in the last ten years, increasing catches of pelagic species but also of vulnerable and overexploited stocks of species. This has made it even more necessary to regulate aFADs numbers and density to avoid adverse social and economic consequences. Other concerns in the sustainable management of aFADs include the economic impact of natural occurrences such as strong hurricanes, and the lack of reporting of aFADs numbers, locations, lifespan and replacement. In addition to the above, issues remain related to resource access via aFADs fisheries, property rights claims, and disagreements on the scope of aFADs aggregated resources. This project aimed to support the Western Central Atlantic Fishery Commission (WECAFC) Secretariat’s coordinating role of connected undertakings on large pelagic fisheries and related species and fisheries, and to strengthen the capacity of the WECAFC Working Group (WG) on the development of sustainable moored fish aggregating device (FAD) fishing. -

Book (series)Technical studyLatin America and the Caribbean - Regional Overview of Food Security and Nutrition 2023
Statistics and trends
2023Also available in:
The 2023 edition of the Regional Overview of Food Security and Nutrition in Latin America and the Caribbean presents an update of the data and trends in food security and nutrition in recent years. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the climate crisis and the conflict in Ukraine, as well as the economic slowdown, rising food inflation and income inequality have had an impact on regional figures. The most recent data shows that, between 2021 and 2022, progress was made in reducing hunger and food insecurity in Latin America and the Caribbean. However, the progress achieved is far from the targets established to meet SDG 2 of ending hunger. In addition, one in five people in the region cannot access a healthy diet and malnutrition in all its forms, including child stunting, micronutrient deficiencies and obesity continue to be a major challenge. -

BookletManual / guideGuide to formulating gendered social norms indicators in the context of food security and nutrition 2022
Also available in:
At present, there is no standard or validated set of social norms indicators for food security and nutrition, and there is a general lack of clear and practical guidance and examples of such indicators for these sectors. Seeking to contribute to filling this gap, this guide will assist with formulating indicators to measure changes in gendered social norms in the context of food security and nutrition. It also offers an initial set of example indicators that programme implementers can draw on to assess social norms change in the context of food security and nutrition programmes. It draws from existing indicators from literature and programme experiences around measuring social norms, including in other sectors, and creates original indicators as well. This guide is designed for programme formulators and implementers, and monitoring and evaluation specialists responsible for creating and implementing M&E frameworks and systems for food security, agriculture and nutrition programmes.
