    The First Regional Symposium on Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Mediterranean and Black Sea was organized from 27 to 30 November 2013 by the General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM) in partnership with the International Centre for Advanced Mediterranean Agronomic Studies (CIHEAM) – Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Bari (MAIB), the FAO Fisheries Department and FAO regional projects, the Network of Marine Protected Area Managers in the Mediterranean (MedPAN) and the W orld Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Mediterranean Programme, and hosted by the Government of Malta. More than 170 participants gathered to share their experience and discuss the future of small-scale fisheries in the Mediterranean and the Black Sea. For the first time in the region, national administrations, international organizations, scientists, nongovernmental organizations, fisher communities, stakeholders and civil society sat around the same table to address issues of common interest and chal lenges for building common strategies, synergies and cooperation to support the sustainable development of this sector. The discussions enabled insights on the main issues at stake and laid the groundwork for a regional programme fostering knowledge on small-scale fisheries and involving all interested stakeholders. The event was also marked by the signature of a cooperation agreement at the regional and subregional level between fishers from the northern and southern shores of the Mediterranean . Finally, all participants concurred on the importance of organizing a second regional symposium in order to follow through on this momentum.

    Report of the mission on Egyptian fisheries administration, 8 October - 7 November 1978 1979

    The Egyptian fishery industry has much undeveloped potential, especially in aquaculture, and there is a very strong domestic demand for its products. There is also much scope for reducing costs of production. The present fisheries administration is fragmented and lacks coordination. It does not possess the organizational structure necessary to carry out many of the tasks it should perform if it is to serve, develop and regulate the fishery industry so as to fulfil its potential. The present admi nistration also lacks senior staff with appropriate professional qualifications and with the knowledge and experience of the unusually complex industry that are necessary if legislators and administrators are to receive sound advice. It is difficult to identify a corporate legal personality capable of handling international assistance funds including development loans. A Mission was arranged as the result of a request by the Government to FAO, and formed part of the activities of the FAO/UNDP In dian Ocean Programme. The present report presents the findings and recommendations given by the Mission staff.

The following four countries attended the Session as members of the Commission: Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkey. Georgia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan attended the Session as observers. The Commission agreed to maintain its administrative budget at USD 180 000 for the years 2016 and 2017. The Commission, having a dopted 11 recommendations, guidelines and better management practices for inland fisheries and aquaculture in its first four sessions (2011-2015), monitored the progress made with implementation of these decisions in the region. The outcome of the monitoring exercise was that the guidelines and recommendations adopted are very relevant and that most are actively being implemented by the countries. The Commission decided to allocate more funds to implementation of its 2nd Regional Work Programme (2016-2020). Priorities for 2017 and 2018 include, amongst others: habitat rehabilitation for inland fisheries, methodologies for inland fisheries stocks assessments, development of best practices for cage aquaculture in reservoirs and lakes, capacity building of small-scale fishers, and training for the establishment of national fisheries and aquaculture data and information management systems.
