Book (stand-alone)Report of the Fisheries Tenure and User Rights: Latin America and Caribbean Regional Workshop 2020
Also available in:
No results found.This workshop was the second of a series of regional workshops on fisheries tenure and user rights. It aimed to discover regional nuances and specificities of the Latin America and Caribbean area to develop how-to guidance on appropriate tenure systems and rights-based approaches for fisheries. Representatives from both government and non-government sectors attended this workshop. Participants at the workshop presented fisheries tenure and user rights of 11 countries, including Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Jamaica, Grenada, Guatemala, Mexico, Panama and Uruguay. Participants discussed in plenary three topics: 1) Recognition and allocation of tenure rights and responsibilities; 2) Transfers and other changes to tenure rights; and 3) Administration of tenure. Participants made recommendations for future work, including (1) increasing efforts on securing small-scale fishers rights; and (2) finding solutions on how different sectors can coexist. To do so, participants requested more information and guidance on tenure and user rights in fisheries along with on-the-ground support. -

No results found.Marine and inland fisheries provide millions of people around the globe with food security and livelihood opportunities. Advancing knowledge on how the world’s marine and inland capture fisheries are accessed, used, and managed using various types of rights-based approaches (RBAs) is a crucial step towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and attaining food and nutrition security and livelihood benefits. The Global Conference on Tenure and User Rights in Fisheries 2018 created a neutral platform for a wide variety of participants, including government officials; fishers from industrial, small-scale and indigenous/traditional communities; fisheries-related stakeholders; nongovernment organizations (NGOs); civil society organizations (CSOs); intergovernmental organizations (IGOs); and academics from around the world. Sharing perceptions and experiences, participants exchanged information and concrete examples through case studies on how tenure and RBAs can harmonize the concepts of responsible fisheries, social and economic development as well as ideas and concerns about the fair and equitable application of user rights in capture fisheries. UserRights 2018 was a unique event that brought together both technical expertise and practical case studies, with the objective of using this diverse knowledge to advance the SDGs. -
Book (stand-alone)Report of the Friends of User Rights 2019 Meeting (FOUR19) 2019
Also available in:
No results found.The Friends of User Rights 2019 Meeting (FoUR19) was organized by FAO as a follow-up to the conclusions and recommendations coming out of Tenure and User Rights in Fisheries 2018: Achieving Sustainable Development Goals by 2030 (UserRights 2018) in Yeosu, Republic of Korea. The purpose of this meeting was to continue to shape the FAO work programme on fisheries tenure and user rights developments based on the outcomes of UserRights 2018, which were: (1) requests for local work on the ground to develop rights-based fisheries management systems, and (2) the development of Voluntary Guidelines on Tenure and User Rights in Fisheries. There was broad agreement among participants to develop practical guidance on the options and opportunities for fisheries stakeholders to consider when advancing fisheries user rights and tenure. It was recommended that FAO develop a timeline for the way forward to gather regional inputs for such guidance, taking advantage of key regional celebrations/dates. Regarding the development of Voluntary Guidelines on Tenure and User Rights in Fisheries, participants believed it was too early to act given the relative newness of both the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries (SSF Guidelines, 2014) and the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries and Forests in the Context of National Food Security (VGGT, 2012).
