Fishery livelihoods
Case study - Introducing a more stable 12-meter wooden fishing vessel in Cambodia
2013
The Regional Fisheries Livelihoods Programme for South and Southeast Asia (RFLP) has sought to reduce fisher vulnerability in Cambodia by introducing a safer and more stable design of the commonly used 12-meter wooden fishing boat. This case study describes the process and outcome of this intervention.
Lessons learned note: Procuring boats for community use.
2013
Donor funded fisheries development projects frequently procure and donate fishing boats to fishers. The process however is often fraught with issues and difficulties which go far beyond boat design. This document provides lessons learned (good and bad) from the field activities of an FAO executed fishery project on boat procurement in Cambodia, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, and Vietnam. These lessons learned should be of benefit to other projects.
