The CWP has evolved from its origins as the "Continuing Working Party" of a meeting of experts on fisheries statistics in 1959, called by various international organisations to co-ordinate the collection of fishery statistics for the North Atlantic and to establish common definitions and classifications.

Since then the CWP has extended its area of interest to cover marine fisheries globally and its membership has been extended to reflect this. It retains much of its original purpose, as it seeks to keep under continuous review the requirements for fishery statistics for research, policy-making and management. It agrees to standard concepts, definitions, classifications and methodologies for the collection and collation of fishery statistics, and makes proposals for the co-ordination of statistical activities amongst relevant intergovernmental organizations. ]]> Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts (ASFA) Résumés des sciences aquatiques et halieutiques (ASFA) Resúmenes sobre las Ciencias Acuáticas y la Pesca (ASFA) Реферативный бюллетень по акватическим наукам и рыболовству (АСФА) خلاصات العلوم المائية ومصايد الأسماك 水产科学和渔业文摘 (ASFA) http://www.fao.org/fishery/asfa/en http://www.fao.org/fishery/asfa/fr http://www.fao.org/fishery/asfa/es http://www.fao.org/fi/asfa/asfac.asp Coordinating Working Party on Fisheries Statistics (CWP) Groupe de travail chargé de coordonner les statistiques des pêches El Grupo coordinador de trabajo sobre estadísticas de pesca Координационная рабочая группа по статистике рыбного хозяйства (КРГ) فريق العمل المنسق المعني بالإحصاءات السمكية 渔业统计协调工作组（CWP） http://www.cwpnet.org Fishery Resources Monitoring System (FIRMS) Système de suivi des ressources halieutiques (FIRMS) Sistema de supervisión de los recursos pesqueros (FIRMS) Система мониторинга рыбопромысловых ресурсов (FIRMS) نظام رصد الموارد السمكية (FIRMS) 渔业资源监测系统 (FIRMS) http://firms.fao.org Fisheries Global Information System (FIGIS) Système mondial d'information sur les pêches (FIGIS) Sistema Mundial de Información sobre la Pesca (FIGIS) Глобальная система информации по рыболовству (ФИГИС) البرنامج العالمي لنظام المعلومات عن مصايد الأسماك 全球渔业信息系统 http://www.fao.org/fishery/figis/en http://www.fao.org/fishery/figis/fr http://www.fao.org/fishery/figis/es http://www.fao.org/fishery/figis/ar http://www.fao.org/fishery/figis/zh
