Descripción
The Workshop on Revisions to the FAO Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries Aquaculture Questionnaire was held in Bangkok, Thailand, from 8 to 10 May 2024. Twenty-four experts from fifteen countries, including Australia, Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Egypt, Jamaica, Nigeria, Oman, the Philippines, the United Republic of Tanzania, Thailand, Türkiye, Tunisia, and Viet Nam, participated in the event. Since the endorsement of the FAO Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries (CCRF) in 1995, aquaculture has grown significantly, emerging as a vital source of food and employment. The original CCRF Questionnaire, established in 2008, was designed to help FAO Members assess implementation progress. In light of technological advances and the introduction of the FAO Guidelines for Sustainable Aquaculture (GSA), this workshop aimed to review and update the CCRF-Aquaculture Questionnaire to ensure its continued relevance and alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).The main objectives of the workshop were to: (i) analyse the current CCRF-Aquaculture Questionnaire and identify areas for improvement; (ii) propose revisions for a new draft Questionnaire; and (iii) recommend strategies to enhance FAO Member participation in completing the Questionnaire. The experts’ inputs will be taken forward into the final draft of the CCRF-AQ Questionnaire.
