    The Caribbean Billfish Management and Conservation Plan 2019
    Also available in:
    No results found.
    This Caribbean Billfish Management and Conservation Plan has been prepared to reverse the trend of declining stocks of billfish species within the Western Central Atlantic Ocean and its adjacent seas, and address unsustainable fishing practices. The Members of the Western Central Atlantic Fishery Commission (WECAFC), Caribbean Regional Fisheries Mechanism (CRFM), Central America Organization for Fishery and Aquaculture (OSPESCA) and the Caribbean Fisheries Management Council (CFMC) are concerned about the billfish stocks in the region. Therefore, they developed together, through the Recreational Fisheries Working Group, and in close collaboration with all key stakeholders in the Consortium on Billfish Management and Conservation (CBMC) this plan in the period 2015–2018. The plan recognizes the mandate of the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) over the billfish stocks, and supports the implementation of the ICCAT recommendations in the region. The objective of this Plan is to outline and guide the implementation of a suite of billfish management measures over a five-year period at regional and sub-regional scales to help secure the potential future benefits that can accrue from billfish stocks in the Caribbean. The overarching goal is to improve the management and conservation of billfish stocks. Specific objectives of the plan include: 1. Improve billfish catch, effort, biological and socio-economic data collection and reporting programs from all fisheries that target these shared stocks; 2. Reduce bycatch, discards and overall fishing mortality of billfishes in order to achieve sustainable stock levels throughout the region; 3. Increase coordination and collaboration between nations through a regional governance framework better suited to effectively address the Caribbean region billfish management and conservation issues; 4. Institute the monitoring, control and surveillance of the billfish fishing effort across all fisheries through regionally harmonized mechanisms to effectively contribute to combat illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing operations in the Caribbean region; 5. Enhance the sustainable socio-economic performance of fisheries capturing billfishes in the WECAFC area.

    The impact of climate variability and extremes on agriculture and food security - An analysis of the evidence and case studies
    Background paper for The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2018

    Global climate studies show that not only temperatures are increasing and precipitation levels are becoming more varied, all projections indicate these trends will continue. It is therefore imperative that we understand changes in climate over agricultural areas and their impacts on agriculture production and food security. This study presents new analysis on the impact of changing climate on agriculture and food security, by examining the evidence on recent climate variability and extremes over agricultural areas and the impact of these on agriculture and food security. It shows that more countries are exposed to increasing climate variability and extremes and the frequency (the number of years exposed in a five-year period) and intensity (the number of types of climate extremes in a five-year period) of exposure over agricultural areas have increased. The findings of this study are compelling and bring urgency to the fact that climate variability and extremes are proliferating and intensifying and are contributing to a rise in global hunger. The world’s 2.5 billion small-scale farmers, herders, fishers, and forest-dependent people, who derive their food and income from renewable natural resources, are most at risk and affected. Actions to strengthen the resilience of livelihoods and food systems to climate variability and extremes urgently need to be scaled up and accelerated.
