Abstract

Thie report provides a summary of presentations, panel statements and working group discussions of the global conference on small scale fisheries. The conference re-enforced the claim that small scale fisheries have yet to fully realise their potential to significantly contribute to sustainable development. In many developing countries small scale fisheries directly contribute to food and livelihood security, balanced nutrition, poverty reduction and wealth creation, foreign exchange earnings and rural development. The conference identified critical ways in securing sustainable small scale fisheries that integrate social, cultural and economic development, address resource access and use rights, issues guided by human rights principles and recognise the rights of indigenous peoples.
