Descripción
The aims of the project entitled Sustainable Management of Bycatch in Latin America and Caribbean Trawl Fisheries (REBYC-II LAC) are to reduce food loss and support sustainable livelihoods by improving the management of bycatch and minimizing discards and sea-bed damage, thereby transforming bottom trawl fisheries into responsible fisheries. Most fish and shrimp stocks targeted by the bottom/shrimp trawl fisheries in the Latin America and Caribbean region are fully fished or overfished, and fish eries suffer from serious governance failures, causing reduced food supply, deeper poverty, social instability and growing user conflicts. Collective and catalyzing actions are urgently needed to address the multiple stresses these fisheries suffer in order to provide long-term benefits for the environment, food production, economic development and regional social stability before irreversible conditions develop. The REBYC-II LAC project covers four integrated components: (i) improved collaborat ive institutional and regulatory arrangements for bycatch management; (ii) strengthening management and optimizing utilization of bycatch within the ecosystem approach to fisheries (EAF) framework; (iii) sustainable livelihoods, diversification and alternatives; and (iv) project progress monitoring and information dissemination.
