Descripción
The FAO Aquaculture News (FAN) is issued twice a year by the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Division. It presents articles and views from the FAO aquaculture programme and discusses
various aspects of aquaculture as seen from the perspective of both headquarters and the field programme. Articles are contributed by FAO staff from within and outside the Fisheries and Aquaculture Division, from FAO regional offices and field projects, by FAO consultants and by invitation from other sources. FAN is distributed free of charge to various institutions, scientists, planners and managers in Member countries.
This Special Issue of FAN is dedicated to the International Year of Artisanal Fisheries and Aquaculture 2022 (IYAFA), with each article considering IYAFA and small-scale aquaculture from different contexts. This includes an article on the upcoming FAO Sub-Committee on Aquaculture (COFI:AQ), immediately followed by an editorial from the vice-chair of the IYAFA International Steering Committee on why IYAFA is important to the COFI:AQ. This issue also includes a global update from the IYAFA Secretariat, and updates from the IYAFA regional steering committees in Latin America and the Caribbean and Africa. Several articles provide information on FAO national projects in Nigeria, Tunisia and Uzbekistan, as well as two regional articles from Asia. Finally, there are a series of thematic articles, covering issues ranging from the value chain approach to aquatic genetic resources to gender, andwith each thematic discussion presents its context through the lens of small-scale aquaculture.
