    Forty-eight secretariats of regional fishery bodies (RFBs) participated at the Tenth Meeting of the Regional Fishery Body Secretariats’ Network (RSN-10). The meeting brought together secretariats of regional fishery bodies (RFBs) with diverse mandates from all geographic regions, including FAO and non-FAO regional fishery bodies, marine and inland fishery advisory and management bodies and agreements. Other invited international organizations and stakeholders such as the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), the United Nations (UN) Division for Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea (DOALOS), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the Government of France, which is hosting UNOC25, also attended the meeting. RSN-10 took place immediately before and after of the Thirty-sixth Session of the Committee on Fisheries (COFI36), which was held from 8 to 12 July 2024. As was the case with COFI, RSN 10 met in hybrid format, in person and virtually, via videoconference, to facilitate the participation to those who could not assist personally. For the second time, the meeting was convened over three days. The meeting allowed participants to exchange views and discuss global processes of particular relevance to RFBs. In particular, RSN-10 paid special attention to how to scale up cooperation and coordination among RFBs in view of the recently adopted international agreements that involve RFBs’ work.

    This is a workshop record. One of many project reports to follow. It is intended that the report covers on this report will be used repeatedly over the course of the project. The cover has been approved by UNEP and needs to be approved for ongoing use by FAO (LOGOS). The inside cover contains a FAO-UNEP disclaimer that has been approved by UNEP, but probably needs to be cleared by FAO (LEGN).
