This was achieved through prompt responses to questionnaires distributed to the secretariats of the RFBs’ network. However, the situation is constantly evolving. As such, in order to understand the full impact of COVID-19 on fisheries and aquaculture, further assessments both at a regional and country level will be required.38 p.application/pdfFAOCC BY NC SA 3.0 IGOThe impact of COVID-19 on fisheries and aquaculture – A global assessment from the perspective of regional fishery bodiesThe impact of COVID-19 on fisheries and aquaculture – A global assessment from the perspective of regional fishery bodiesInitial assessment, May 2020Book (stand-alone)
