    At its 15th Regular Session held in Rome in 2015, the Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture requested FAO to develop and finalize a thematic study on “Incorporating genetic diversity and indicators into statistics and monitoring of farmed aquatic species and their wild relatives.” The following report includes the discussions and outputs of an expert group that addressed the topic, Incorporating genetic diversity and indicators into regular statistics and monitoring of farmed aquatic species and their wild relatives

    Report of the Expert Meeting on Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures in the Marine Capture Fishery Sector, Rome, Italy, 7-10 May 2019 2019

    Aichi Biodiversity Target 11, adopted by the Conference of the Parties to the CBD in 2010, aims to improve the status of biodiversity by safeguarding ecosystems, species and genetic diversity through area-based conservation. The Parties to the CBD are now promoting a valuable opportunity to acknowledge the role of “other effective area-based conservation measures” (OECMs) in biodiversity conservation beyond protected areas, and to work towards the common goals of biodiversity conservation and sustainable fisheries management. This report summarizes an expert meeting that was held from 7–10 May 2019 at FAO Headquarters to begin the process of supporting the fishery sector to engage in identifying OECMs in support of Aichi Target 11.

    Report of the FAO/PaCFA Expert Workshop on Assessing Climate Change Vulnerability in Fisheries and Aquaculture: Available Methodologies and their Relevance for the Sector

    The purpose of the global Expert Workshop on Assessing Climate Change Vulnerability in Fisheries and Aquaculture: Available Methodologies and their Relevance for the Sector was to review latest stages in research on, and the application of, climate variability and change vulnerability methodologies. It also provided an opportunity to begin a common reflection on what role these methodologies can have in planning policies and strategies to best cope with climate change impacts on fisheries and aq uaculture. Making the link between expert advice and practical use of vulnerability methodologies from around the globe set the scene for fruitful discussions on how to make the best use of the existing information, how to prioritize the filling of gaps and how to develop a common understanding on the effectiveness of such knowledge in relation to policy and management actions and programmes. As vulnerability methodologies are a function of different factors (vulnerability of what and of whom to what), the workshop required experts from across the natural and social sciences disciplines and from both inland and marine capture fisheries and aquaculture. These examined current methodologies for conducting vulnerability assessments and provided best practices on how to develop and undertake a vulnerability assessment for incorporation into the design of adaptation programmes in fisheries and aquaculture in the face of climate change.
