Through a micro-blog and the hashtag #covid_ssf and in collaboration with its partners, CFFA will publish news from African small-scale fisheries, the impacts of this crisis, and the measures authorities and fishing communities are implementing.
In view of the global evaluation of the Sustainable Fisheries Partnership Agreements (SFPAs) that will be carried out by the Commission in 2021, the author highlights the key points which will need to be assessed from the perspective of the impacts on African coastal communities. The author also suggests essential improvements to be made for the future of SFPAs so that they better respond to the needs of these communities.
