Abstract

The international community is increasingly acknowledging the relevance of fisheries for food production due to its more than 160 million tonnes of product each year from marine and inland waters capture, as well as aquaculture, to meet the nutrition needs of world population. This acknowledgement is reflected in the adoption of Goal 14, associated to water ecosystems, of the Sustainable Development Goals of the 2030 Agenda of November 2015, particularly Indicator 14.b.1 “Progress by countries in the degree of application of a legal/regulatory/policy/institutional framework which recognizes and protects access rights for small-scale fisheries”. This international acknowledgement is expressed through the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-scale Fisheries, endorsed by member states in June 2014.
