A panel discussion on Future-proofing Small-Scale Fisheries (SSF): Innovations in th Fishing to Enhance Contribution of SSF to Food security was organized on 16 February 2023 in Kochi, India, at the side-lines of the International Symposium on “Innovations in Fishing Technologies for Sustainable and Resilient Fisheries”. The objectives of the Panel Discussion were to identify the challenges faced by the Small-scale fisheries (SSF) sector, share knowledge on new innovations, and promote strategies to ensure sustainable development of the sector through the application of innovative technologies. The Panel discussion included six thematic presentations on the SSF sector in the context of the Bay of Bengal (BOB) region, covering the importance of SSF from economic and social perspectives and also shedding light on the problem of defining the SSF. Issues of fishing craft modification and engine optimization, onboard fish handling, and postharvest practices were also discussed. Presenters from Sri Lanka and Maldives shared insights into sustaining the SSF by providing social protection, interactive governance, and improving cold chain management and market lineages. Further, the need for focused research to address the sustainability issues of small-scale fisheries in the inland sector was highlighted.
