Abstract

This is the story of the long and eventful journey towards the creation of the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication (the SSF Guidelines). I have been a participant of this journey for five decades and this recollection represents my own perspective. Others may narrate it differently, but the essence remains the same: A story of small scale fishers, deeply rooted in their socio-cultural heritage, reclaiming their rights to the sea and its resources. I divide this journey, spanning over a century, into eight distinct periods.
