Objetivo / Meta | The project successfully supported the organization of the CECAF intersessional follow-up meeting on the outcomes of the independent CBA report, and the implementation of the Ninth Session of the SSC of the CECAF. The follow-up meeting on the revised independent CBA report was attended by 15 delegates representing CECAF Members. The delegates welcomed the report and its options, and the highlighting of the CECAF’s key challenges. They made key recommendations, as well as recommending the most appropriate option to improve the functioning of the CECAF. During the Ninth Session of the SSC the major items covered included, among others, the reports produced on the assessment of the Working Groups (WGs) concerned with small pelagic and demersal species, and the report of the artisanal fisheries WG; and fishery management advice in the CECAF region. The SSC made recommendations for the WGs that needed corrective measures or strengthening. The resolutions proposed were shared in draft form by the 38 representatives from 18 CECAF Members and non-state stakeholders who attended the Ninth Session of the SSC, for immediate implementation. The draft report of the findings and recommendations of the CECAF CBA study was prepared and presented to CECAF Members. Once the report has been finalized (in both French and English) it will be uploaded on the CECAF website for use by stakeholders. |

Impacto | The project interventions contributed to improving the processes through which the CECAF provides scientific advice. It is expected that this will contribute to sustainable regional fisheries governance in the CECAF mandate area. This, in turn, will assist agencies, countries and dependent communities to use existing and emerging knowledge, tools and practices to secure and sustainably maximize the contribution of aquatic (both marine and inland) food systems to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). |
