No results found.The Workshop on Bycatch, Particularly in Prawn Fisheries, and on the Implementation of an Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management was attended by participants from Kenya, Madagascar, Maldives, Mauritius, Mozambique, Seychelles, South Africa, Somalia and the United Republic of Tanzania. The workshop was also supported by resource persons from Italy, Nigeria and the United States of America. The workshop received from the countries national reports and reviews concerning bycatch, se a turtle distribution, critical habitats, main sources of natural and man-induced mortality and conservation efforts. The use of turtle excluding devices (TEDs) and interactions between sea turtles and fisheries in the shrimp trawling was discussed. It was concluded that two workshops about turtle and fisheries should be set up, the first for collecting data on turtle occurrence and mortality and the second for presenting these results to managers, fisheries associations and industry in an attempt to find the best solutions and exchange knowledge. Information about the countries implementation of the ecosystem approach to fisheries (EAF) management effort was reported. Two different methods of identifying ecosystem approach to fisheries issues and risk analysis in order to prioritize the issues were presented and tested. Obstacles on implementing the EAF were considered by the workshop and, as a way forward, it was concluded that a risk assessment for sustainabl e fisheries (RASF) approach should be applied in order to implement EAF in the region. This could be done in national case studies. -

BookletPolicy briefPolicy Brief - Indigenous livestock and poultry to alleviate under-nutrition among women and children in rural farm-households of Sri Lanka 2019
Also available in:
No results found.Malnutrition among women of reproductive age results in reduced productivity, increased susceptibility to infections, slow recovery from illness, and heightened risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. In Sri Lanka, only 45.7 percent of women have a healthy BMI, with 45.3 percent either overweight or obese. Being underweight and overweight can impact negatively on an unborn child. The causal relationship between nutritional status and food consumption patterns is well established, including the relationship between increased consumption of animal source foods. Promoting the consumption of these foods, specifically, indigenous livestock and poultry, is one channel to improve food and nutrition security in Sri Lanka. At a household level, evidence demonstrates that indigenous livestock and poultry keepers consume more animal source foods, and contribute to food and nutrition security of the household. Furthermore, the keepers of livestock with a market orientation earn additional income from sales and thus contribute to accessibility of more nutritious food. Despite the benefits of rearing indigenous livestock, a secular decline of indigenous animals from the farming systems of Sri Lanka is evident. In this respect, this policy brief examines the benefits of livestock and poultry to alleviate malnutrition and improve the living conditions of rural small-holder farm families and provides recommendations for policy and regulatory reforms. -
