Descripción
This two phase Technical Cooperation Programme (TCP) project was formulated to enhance the CBFMP of Samoa, which was established in 1995 and reviewed twenty years later. The purpose of the CBFMP is to engage coastal communities in the sustainable management of fisheries through the implementation of traditional practices and the incorporation of community roles, rules and village by laws, which are recognized by national law. The 2015 review of the Programme revealed specific gaps and led to the formulation of recommendations. This project was designed to address both the gaps and recommended actions by enhancing the development of the CBFMP and its monitoring and awareness-raising programmes, as well as by supporting livelihood and ecotourism activities. The project was closely aligned with the priorities of its implementing partner, the Fisheries Division of the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries (MAF).
