On October 2021, the Pacific Community (SPC) through its Fisheries Aquaculture and Marine Ecosystem (FAME) Division organised its fourth Regional Technical Meeting on Coastal Fisheries and Aquaculture (RTMCFA4), which included the first session on Community-Based Fisheries Dialogue (CBFD). The CBFD was led by and focused on civil society organisations (CSOs) and other non-state actors (NSAs) that are actively engaged in fisheries management in Pacific Island countries and territories (PICTs). While the RTMCFA4 included staff of national fisheries agencies to discuss key technical issues affecting coastal fisheries and aquaculture and identifying strategies to strengthen livelihood opportunities for sustainable fisheries development in the region, the CBFD session centred on deliberating and agreeing on mechanisms that will enhance the processes and engagement of CSOs and other NSAs in future CBFDs. It is envisioned that the CBFD will provide a platform for meaningful participation and help amplify the voices of communities engaged in fisheries management, including women and marginalised groups, in important fisheries discussions, with CSOs and NSAs representing their interests. The outcomes of the CBFD will be shared with fisheries leaders in the region at Heads of Fisheries (HoF) meetings and at the Regional Fisheries Ministers Meeting (RFMM).
