    Mozambique's coastline supports a rich artisanal fishing sector and provides a source of food and employment for the population. However, the country is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and extreme weather events, which have a significant impact on communities' livelihoods in terms of food and nutrition security. Fisheries co-management presents a viable approach to address these challenges and meet the increasing demand for food resources. The factsheet describes how the Smart Fisheries Co-Management (SFC) project is working in Mozambique to enhance efficient co-management strategies while promoting sustainability and better livelihoods. SFC is conducting trainings in Mozambique to provide the knowledge and skills necessary for evaluating and improving fisheries co-management practices.

    Enhancing Fisheries Co-Management Capacities - GCP/GLO/046/ROK 2023

    Problematic fisheries management hinders the sustainable and efficient use of natural resources. It has become clear during the last few decades that the user groups who use finite fisheries resources need to efficiently manage them to enable them to endure. The application of various policy tools with user groups to manage fisheries has gradually become a fundamental aspect of fisheries management and has led to the development of fisheries co-management regimes worldwide. In this context, fisheries co-management has been considered one effective solution to resource overexploitation and growing social/economic problems. While there is a substantial body of literature about co-management arrangements and outcomes, this information has yet to be brought together to create a coherent guiding framework with on-the-ground implementation supporting guidance. The overall objective of the project was to develop knowledge products that would support fisheries stakeholders and policy-makers in designing and implementing effective fisheries co-management arrangements for sustainable fisheries governance.
