This document is the final report of the Regional Stakeholders’ Workshop on Fishing Effort and Capacity on Lake Victoria. The main purpose of the workshop was to share, recognize and include the national stakeholders’ perspectives and concerns that had been provided by national stakeholders at previously held national workshops in the respective Partner States regarding the draft Lake Victoria Fisheries Organization (LVFO) Regional Plan of Action for the Management of Fishing Capacity on Lake Victoria and its Basin (RPOA-Capacity). Participants recommended a number of amendments on several Articles of the Draft RPOA-Capacity and collectively agreed to commit to the amended draft RPOA-Capacity, to request that the LVFO adopt the draft RPOA-Capacity and to forward it to the Council of Ministers of the LVFO for endorsement.
