This Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries management training course (Inland Fisheries) is designed as a complete training course for the sustainable management of inland fisheries using the ecosystem approach. It is targeted at middle-level fishery and environment officers, extension workers, facilitators and other stakeholders engaged in the planning and management of inland fisheries. This training course is designed to be applicable to many inland fishery contexts around the world (including overlapping freshwater fishery and aquaculture systems). It is also intended to be adapted to suit specific local contexts.

There are four volumes developed for the training course:

VOLUME 1: HANDBOOK FOR TRAINEES

VOLUME 2: INLAND FISHERY CASE STUDIES

VOLUME 3: TRAINING COURSE PRESENTATIONS & VISUALS

VOLUME 4: TRAINING SESSION PLANS

This volume is VOLUME 2: INLAND FISHERY CASE STUDIES and contains five example case studies of how EAFm approaches can support the management of inland fisheries. These case studies are intended for use in Module 5 of the training course.
