TLDR on #PESCAO C3 recommendations: - boost research funding (currently at 0.42%) - prioritize local knowledge - create centers of excellence for fisheries science - improve fisheries data collection systems - launch multi-year national programs - better traceability - more MPAs
FAO CECAF/COPACE Secretariat@FAO_CECAFCOPACE

Under the EU #PESCAO, representatives gathered to strategize #WestAfrica fisheries knowledge Discussions ranged: knlowedge systems, human migration, stock assessments... Needs: 📊Better data systems 🤝Regional collaboration 🔬Science-based management 🔗doi.org/10.4060/cd3397…

@DiplomaticIfe Good Dr. Agreed! #digitaldivide in #africanfisheries more than a technical gap; it seems to be getting wider! Hardware+capacity needed to bridge gap. Opportunity for eastern central Atlantic to shape hybrid approaches (gradually test traditional with new digital methods+tools)?

@sakchaimcd Re data collection, 1 question remains unanswered. How can a country like Ghana improve data collection which often rely on digital tools that are either funded, managed or developed elsewhere? Until the digital divide in the maritime sphere is bridged, we’d be playing catch up.

📘Report - In Ghana's case: 52/300 landing sites monitored - Electronic registry (2014) faced functionality issues - Key challenge: improved coverage of landing sites needed Overall, #CECAF countries need a harmonized data collection (artisanal) system doi.org/10.4060/cc8222…
FAO CECAF/COPACE Secretariat@FAO_CECAFCOPACE

📊 Report analyzes small-scale fisheries data systems in #CECAF region Key findings: 🔷Senegal: diverse monitoring methods and needs modernization 🔷 Mauritania: SSPAC system with good coverage 🔷 Ghana: faces registry functionality challenges 🔗doi.org/10.4060/cc8222…

🔬FAO #CECAF report reviews Bayesian approaches (JABBA) vs stochastic models (SPICT) vs length-based methods (LBSPR/LBB) for data-limited fisheries 🧐multi-model frameworks more suited? 🔗doi.org/10.4060/cd2719…
FAO CECAF/COPACE Secretariat@FAO_CECAFCOPACE

🌍 Fisheries in #CECAF region requires data and alternative solutions exists. 🔷 Report = length-based methods & catch-only models can assess fish stocks even with limited data 🔷 Consider: test alternative models for contextual and sustainable fishing 🔗doi.org/10.4060/cd2719…

@FAOFish Climate Guide🌡️ Across the #CECAF region, where the artisanal sector dominates, adapting to impacts is critical. 🇱🇷i.e, in Liberia: 18,086 MT from artisanal vs 5,113 MT industrial catch (2020). 🌍Building climate resilience = protecting livelihoods of communities.
