Small-scale fisheries provide nutritious food for their own consumption and for local, national, and international markets. They also generate income to support local and national economies. They contribute to over half of global catches in developing countries, and 90 to 95 percent of their landings are destined for direct human consumption (World Bank, 2012). Small-scale fisheries are fundamental and instrumental for the progressive realization of the human right to adequate food (right to food) for millions of people. There are two international instruments that can support the contribution of small-scale fisheries to food security and nutrition.
