Synopsis (short abstract) Shared sardinella: Supporting the implementation of the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries for the management of shared Sardinella stocks in northwest Africa is an initiative by the EAF Nansen Programme. The long-term objective of the programme is to support sustainable fisheries to improve food and nutrition security for people in partner countries. The Shared sardinella project responds to the need for regional collaboration on the management of shared sardinella stocks. The regional and national projects aim to promote an ecosystem approach to fisheries (EAF) in strenghtening capacities, structures and fisheries management processes through the development and use of the fisheries management cycle (FMC). The initiative contributes to the expected results of the EAF-Nansen Programme: “fisheries management institutions manage fisheries according to the EAF principles” and related indicators. The projects contribute also towards achieving the following United Nations Sustainable Development Goals: SDG1 ("no poverty"), SDG2 ("zero hunger"), SDG5 ("gender equality"), SDG13 ("climate change") and SDG14 ("life below water").
