This Information Paper provides additional information in relation to the document COFI/2020/6 on Supporting Small-scale and Artisanal Fisheries. The paper provides additional details on activities and achievements by FAO, governments, small-scale fisheries actors and partners in the context of implementing the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication (SSF Guidelines) since the Committee’s Thirty-third Session in 2018. It should be recognised that, as the SSF Guidelines are gaining acceptance by a larger number of partners, it is becoming increasingly difficult to capture all developments. This paper also draws attention to the need for more countries to begin participatory processes to adopt the SSF Guidelines principles and recommendations, and to recognise the value of the SSF Guidelines as a tool for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). FAO Members are encouraged to engage in preparations for the celebration of the International Year of Artisanal Fisheries and Aquaculture in 2022 (IYAFA 2022). The progress on improving the availability of information and data on small-scale fisheries through the study “Illuminating Hidden Harvests: The contribution of small-scale fisheries to sustainable development” is further described in the document COFI/2020/Inf.12.1.
