No results found.A regional workshop was held in Barbados on 19-21 January 2016 and was attended by thirteen countries (mostly Caribbean Island states), two EU overseas territories, and four regional organizations. This workshop was a cornerstome milestone of the action on “Strengthening national data collection and regional data sharing through FIRMS to support priority regional fishery management plans in the WECAFC area”, funded by EU-DG MARE. The workshop intended to be innovative, addressing the entire data value adding chain from national data collection, through data sharing and analysis at regional level, up to the dissemination of assessment results to the broader public through FIRMS reports. The chosen approach placed the question of statistical data collection (the WHAT) and regional data sharing (the HOW) in respect of the final use (the WHY). The workshop reviewed existing situation regarding current practices, issues and gaps in data collection, processing and dissemination at national l evel. Through prioritization sessions, recommendations were made for achieving the RDB in support to stock assessment and fishery management plans. Practical follow-up actions and road map building as much as possible on existing frameworks and collaborations were endorsed by the participants, with proper identification of responsibilities, resources and time frames. As part of these, recommendations were formulated to ventilate statistics/data/IT related ToRs across existing Species WECAFC-CRF M-OSPESCA working groups and the need for an ad’hoc transversal working group was endorsed by the workshop. -
