6. Capacity building
A review of the current level of information and the strength of national
institutions concerned with fisheries suggests that significant effort will need to
be made to develop policy research and capacity. In particular, developing
countries will need substantial support in the following areas:
i) Collection of baseline information;
ii) Improving long term monitoring and forecasts;
iii) Research methodologies and analytical tools; and
iv) Improving policy analysis
The information to be gathered and managed for policies related to capacity
building may be applicable for all the ayuatic ecosystems. The issues for the
same are summarised in Table 3.
