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.
