Abstract

The workshop titled “Transforming the Value Chain of Small Pelagic Fish in West Africa: Maximizing the Value of Catches”, held in Nouakchott, Mauritania (10–11 July 2025), convened over 60 stakeholders from governments, international organizations, research institutions, civil society, and the private sector. The event was co-organized by the Global Roundtable on Marine Ingredients (GRT), IMROP, and the Mauritanian Small Pelagics FIP. It built on the momentum of the FAO’s 2023 Accra meeting and laid the groundwork for concrete, collaborative actions. The workshop aimed to deepen understanding of the socio-economic dynamics of small pelagic (SP) fisheries in West Africa and to foster sub-regional cooperation for sustainable management, improved governance, and enhanced food security. It emphasized the need to maximize the value of SP catches, particularly through direct human consumption, and to align national and regional policies for better resource stewardship.
