[Published only on the Web site] / Rapport de la Consultation technique sur les Directives techniques pour un commerce responsable du poisson. Rome, 5-7 novembre 2007. [Publié seulement sur le site Web] / Informe de la Consulta Técnica sobre las Directrices Técnicas para un Comercio Pesquero Responsable. Roma, 5-7 de noviembre de 2007. [Publicado solamente en el sitio Web] 2008The Technical Consultation on Technical Guidelines for Responsible Fish Trade was convened by FAO at the request of the twenty-seventh session of the Committee on Fisheries (COFI) (Rome, 5-9 March 2007) and the tenth session of the COFI Sub-Committee on Fish Trade (Santiago de Compostela, 30 May - 2 June 2006). The Consultation was attended by 34 Members of FAO and by observers from two intergovernmental organizations. The Consultation welcomed the draft Technical Guidelines. Many dele gations noted the importance of ensuring that the draft Technical Guidelines did not result in the creation of additional barriers to trade. The Technical Consultation also agreed that responsible fish trade objectives must be underpinned by responsible management practices. Recognizing that the available time did not permit the Technical Consultation to complete its consideration of the draft guidelines in their entirety, the delegates agreed that the Technical Consultation be re-open ed at a later stage for discussion of the remaining paragraphs.

Major topics discussed during the session were: the state of fisheries in the WECAFC region; the status and trends of fisheries and aquaculture; the decisions of the twenty-seventh session of the Committee on Fisheries (COFI) and the twelfth session of WECAFC; intersessional activities and projects; factors of unsustainability a nd overexploitation in marine fisheries; fisheries social science; and coordination and collaboration in fisheries science in the region. The decisions of the twenty-seventh session of COFI have implications for the work of WECAFC, especially in areas such as small-scale fisheries, subsidies, marine protected areas and bycatch reduction. The meeting identified weak management and poor governance as major problems in WECAFC member countries. Training and capacity building, to reinforce management , were identified as areas for donor support. The need for incorporating the human dimension in fisheries governance to ensure that outputs and outcomes contribute meaningfully to human well-being was highlighted. -
