Abstract

The Shanghai Declaration aims to build on and expand the scope of the CCRF and previous international declarations, taking full account of global agreements of relevance to aquaculture, including the FAO Committee on Fisheries (COFI) Declaration on Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture adopted by FAO Members in February 2021. The work of the COFI Sub-Committee on Aquaculture, including the development of Guidelines for Sustainable Aquaculture, is crucial in this respect. The Shanghai Declaration aims to provide guidance on maximizing aquaculture’s contribution to Agenda 2030 and its SDGs, and specifically address three key questions: i) how does aquaculture contribute to the SDGs? ii) where does aquaculture need to be in 10 years? and iii) how do we get there? The Shanghai Declaration was first outlined and developed by an invited group of experts, informed by regional and thematic aquaculture reviews commissioned by FAO in 2020 in advance of the Global Conference on Aquaculture Millennium +20 (GCA +20). Members of its International Organizing Committee and International Programme Committee further elaborated the Shanghai Declaration, with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the Network of Aquaculture Centres in Asia-Pacific acting as Secretariat while providing additional inputs. The advanced draft was posted online for comments by participants ahead of the GCA +20, which were considered in the final drafting.
