Dear Coordinator,
The following are my contribution to the above discussion
Answers to the following questions may help in monitoring implementation
- Who are small scale fishers?(Definition, boundaries and application to different countries: under developing, developing and developed countries)
- What are their activities, evaluation of their current status and interventions that can improve their livelihoods
- Identification of the stakeholders, their contribution along the value chain and improvement possibilities
Participation of small scale fishers at all levels including policy makers, scientist, extension officers is required such that data gathering will be enhanced
Gender should also be considered.
