Support to the identification phase of the SADC programme ‘Strengthening co‐management and value chains of sharedfisheries resources in the Zambezi basin’0 Executive summary / Sumário Executivo0.1 Em inglesThe overall purpose of this project is to support the SADC countries of the Zambezi Basin to identifykey stakeholders and define priorities and main actions for the start up of a Regional TechnicalProgramme (RTP) to – strengthen co‐management and value chains of shared fisheries resources inthe Zambezi basin. This Programme has been identified as a priority of the SADC and approved bythe Ministerial Meeting on Natural Resources and Environment held on 16 July 2010 in Victoria Falls,Zimbabwe. The initial RTP was later restructured to enable more efficient resource mobilization inJanuary 2012 and later developed into this Project concept note at a workshop held in Kasane,Botswana from the 27‐30 August 2012 with funding support from the European Union, thisworkshop and the preparations for the workshop were the work of this Project of the <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong>Programme.The goal of the RTP is to support the objectives and the SADC and specifically to support theimplementation of the SADC Protocol on <strong>Fish</strong>eries through enhancing regional food security andrural economic growth, through two linked projects: Strengthening Co‐Management of Shared<strong>Fish</strong>eries Resources in the Zambezi River Basin and Enhancing Value Chain Gains of the Shared<strong>Fish</strong>eries Resources in the Zambezi River Basin.Prior to the workshop in Kasane, briefing material was prepared and distributed along with aquestionnaire about the information and knowledge required to strengthen the fisheries comanagementof the Zambezi Basin. Then a workshop was held in Kasane, Botswana from the 27 to30 August 2012, hosted by the SADC Secretariat. 38 people attended the workshop from six of thecountries of the Zambezi Basin and 12 programmes or organizations with an interest in the Basin.The workshop provided a platform to engage various stakeholders including and representativesfrom fisheries departments, local communities, research and academic institutions, traditionalauthorities NGOs and other partners representing regional programmes and initiatives. The outputfrom the workshop was an agreed way forward including: identification of challenges for comanagementof the Zambezi Basin, key objectives and expected results required to improve the comanagement,with identified actions and a workplan and associated stakeholder groups.A concept note was drafted that describes the requirements to strengthening co‐management ofshared fisheries resources in the Zambezi River Basin. The goal is: to enhance the contribution offisheries to the regional food security and rural economic growth in the Zambezi basin. While thepurpose is: to establish productive and resilient fisheries in the Zambezi Basin. Five results wereidentified and a workplan covering six years and the required stakeholders was identified.Project Funded by the European Union Page 4 A project implemented by NFDS Africa
Support to the identification phase of the SADC programme ‘Strengthening co‐management and value chains of sharedfisheries resources in the Zambezi basin’0.2 Em PortuguêsEste projecto tem por objectivo geral apoiar os Estadso membros da SADC da bacia do Zambeze aidentificar os principais parceiros, definir prioridades e principais acções para o arranque doPrograma Técnico Regional (RTP) visando – Fortalecer a co‐gestão e a cadeia de valor dos recursospesqueiros partilhados da bacia do Zambeze. Importa referir que este programa foi aprovado naReunião dos Ministros Responsáveis pelos Recursso Naturais e Ambiente que teve lugar a 16 deJulho de 2010 em Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe e foi identificado como sendo prioritário para a SADC.O Programa Técnico Regional (RTP) que tinha sido inicialmente aprovado foi posteriormentereestruturado com vista a permitir uma eficiente mobilização de recursos em Janeiro de 2012 econsequentemente a elaboração do presente documento conceptual do projecto na oficina que tevelugar em Kasane, Botswana de 27‐30 de Agosto de 2012 com o apoio financeiro da União Europeia.Este workshop e a respectiva preparação foram acções deste projecto do Programa <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong>.Os objectivos do Programa Técnico Regional (RTP) é sobretudo apoiar os objectivos da própria SADCe especificamente apoiar a implementação do Protocolo das Pescas da SADC através da melhoria dasegurança alimentar regional e crescimento económico rural através de dois projectos interligados:Fortalecendo a co‐gestão dos recursos pesqueiros partilhados da bacia do Rio Zambeze e Melhoriados benefícios da cadeia de valor dos recursos pesqueiros partilhados da bacia do Rio.Antes da oficina de Kasane, foi preparado e distribuido material informativo e questionáriorelativamente a informação e conhecimento necessaries para fortalecer a co‐gestão das pescarias daBacia do Zambeze.Em seguida, a oficina teve lugar em Kasane, Botswana de 27 a 30 de Agosto de 2012, tendo oSecretariado da SADC acolhido a mesma. Trinta e oito (38) pessoas de seis Estados da Bacia doZambeze e 12 programas e organizações com interesse na Bacia participaram nesta oficina. A oficinaproporcionou as bases para o cometimento de vários parceiros e representantes dos departamentosde pesca, comunidades locais, instituições de pesquisa e académicas, autoridades tradicionais,Organizações Não Governamentais (ONG’s) e outros parceiros representando programas einiciativas regionais. Como resultado da oficina foi acordado o caminho a seguir incluindo:identificação dos desafios para a co‐gestão da Bacia do Zambeze, objectivos principais e resultadosesperados e necessários para melhorar a co‐gestão, com acções identificadas, plano de trabalho egrupo de parceiros associados.Foi elaborado um documento conceptual que descreve os requisites necessaries para ofortalecimento da co‐gestão dos recursos pesqueiros partilhados da bacia do Rio Zambeze. A meta é:Fortalecer a contribuição das pescas na segurança alimentar regional e crescimento económico dabacia do Zambeze. Enquanto o objectivo é: Estabelecer pescarias produtivas e resistentes da baciado Zambeze. Foram identificados cinco resultados e um plano de trabalho para um período de seisanos e parceiros necessários foram, igualmente, identificados.Project Funded by the European Union Page 5 A project implemented by NFDS Africa
Support to the identification phase of the SADC programme ‘Strengthening co‐management and value chains of sharedfisheries resources in the Zambezi basin’1 AntecedentesA Bacia do Zambeze com uma área de 1,39 milhões de km2 abrange oito países: Angola,Botswana, Malawi, Moçambique, Namíbia, Tanzânia, Zâmbia e Zimbabwe. Com cerca de 40milhões de pessoas, nela encontram‐se importantes recursos pesqueiros das águascontinentais da África Austral, proporcionando renda, alimentos e meios de subsistênciapara muitas pessoas da região.Todo o sistema de pesca ‐ desde a produção à comércilização ‐ é susceptivel de uma série devicissitudes decorrentes quer do facto humano quer natural: Essas vicissitudes ameaçam osbenefícios proporcionados pelos recursos pesqueiros. Em resposta, os oito paísesribeirinhos estão aumentando seus esforços individualmente e em conjunto visando parasalvaguardar o futuro das pescarias. Este projecto faz parte deste esforço, ajudando a SADCa identificar as principais partes interessadas e definir prioridades e as principais acçõespara o arranque do Programa Técnico Regional (RTP) para ‐ fortalecer a co‐gestão e a cadeiade valor dos recursos pesqueiros partilhados na bacia do Zambeze.O contrato para esta trabalho financiado pelo projeto <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong> da União Europeia (UE) foiadjudicado a NFDS África. A equipe de consultores da NFDS foi composta por Sandy Davieslíder da equipe e especialista da pesca em águas continentais e Ulrika Egner Coordenadorados eventos, ambas apoiadas por Sinead Sheridan e James Abbott e Mercy Mangena. Ocontrato foi assinado a 23 de Maio e estará em execução por um período de cinco (5)meses, i.e., até 24 de Outubro de 2012.2 Abordagem aos objectivosO trabalho começou com uma reunião entre a líder da equipa da NFDS África (Sandy Davies)acompanhada pela Assistente de Pesquisa (Sinead Sheridan) e o Secretariado da SADC (Sr.Nyambe Nyambe, Oficial Sénior dos Recursos Naturais) em Gaborone, Botswana, em 28 deMaio de 2012. Neste encontro foram discutidos e acordados detalhes do projecto e as dataspara a oficina, tendo sido indicada a data de 27‐30 de Agosto de 2012, em Kasane,Gaborone. A líder da equipa de consultores da NFDS África, teve, igualmente aoportunidade de reunir‐se com a Senhora Margaret Nyirenda, Directora de FANR noSecretariado da SADC para discutir o projecto.A equipe de consultores da NFDS, incluindo a senhora Ulrika Egner (Coordenadora deEventos), trocaram comunicações electrónicas (e‐mail) com o Sr. Leone Tarabusi da UnidadeRegional de Facilitação do Programa <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong> (RFU) baseado em Maputo e o senhorNyambe do Secretariado da SADC com alguns subsídios da Sra.

Support to the identification phase of the SADC programme ‘Strengthening co‐management and value chains of sharedfisheries resources in the Zambezi basin’Os consultores da NFDS África visando responder a abordagem constante do relatório inicialdedicou‐se na preparação do material informativo necessário (em anexo), no entanto,houve desafios na perseguição deste objectivo pois os detalhes do RTP somente foramdisponibilizados antes da oficina. Seguidamente no segundo dia da oficina, nova informaçãoveio à superfície, e segundo a qual a essência do RTP devia ser dividida em dois projectos aoinvés dos quatro projectos inicialmente previstos. Isso veio a mudar as condições técnicasdo encontro, que estava centrado nas informações e conhecimento em co‐gestão para umaabordagem mais geral sobre co‐gestão incluindo elementos de política, mudanças climáticase sem muita necessidade de antecedentes de informação e conhecimento.A abordagem do trabalho foi, então, orientada pelo Sr. Leone Tarabusi coordenador daUnidade do Programa <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong>, baseado em Maputo, que estava presente na reunião. Osconsultores deram do seu melhor para que estas mudanças, os conselhos do Sr. Tarabusi e areunião continuassem a ser um sucesso até o final. Após a reunião, foi elaborado umdocumento conceptual para incorporar a nova componente do programa e respectivosTermos de Referência dos consultores foram ajustados para acomodar as alterações.3 Comentários sobre os termos de referênciaOs Termos de Referência tal como inicialmente previstos eram adequados.

1.4 Current state of affairs in the relevant sectorThe Zambezi Basin comprises some of Southern Africa’s most important water and fishery resources.They provide economic, food security, social and environmental benefits to about 40 million peopleliving in the Basin and some more outside the area. The Basin covers eighth countries (Angola,Botswana, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe) with an area of 1.39million km2 from which over at least 100,000 km2 seasonally under water. Total fish production of theZambezi system is estimated at over 500,000 metric tons annually, many of which is unrecorded, andmore than 500,000 people are directly dependent on fisheries for their livelihoods. Situation of theresources is mostly unknown, as the basin encompasses Zambezi River and its various tributaires, wherethe assessment of stocks is difficult, and the main catchments (both man-made and natural. Situation inthe catchments is controlled by the competent national and regional authorities and fishing effort issubject to regulation and monitoring. The resources in these water bodies and related benefit to thepopulation are stable, providing no deregulation or natural and socio-economic conditions changes willoccur.Among the main drivers of change are continued investments in hydro-energy infrastructure, increasingirrigation development and land use changes, growing populations and urbanization, increasinginvestments in aquaculture in several parts of the Basin, expanding regional markets and trade of fish andfish products, and changing climatic conditions with rising temperatures and changing rainfall patternsalready having an impact on fisheries resources.The entire fishery system – from production to trade – therefore needs to be resilient and able to adapt tosuch changes in order to have a sustainable future. In response to increased threats, the eight ripariancountries – Angola, Botswana, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe – haveincreased their efforts to safeguard the future of fisheries. Although progress has been achieved in manyplaces, it has remained local and fragmented and has not a significant impact at regional level. Over thelast few years, these experiences have been discussed in several regional fora where recommendationswere developed for a concerted and targeted effort to improve management of the fisheries in theZambezi Basin.Aligned with the Implementation Plan for the SADC Protocol on <strong>Fish</strong>eries, these recommendationsemphasize the need for an approach that results in demonstrable reduction of poverty, improved foodsecurity and enhanced resilience of fisheries in the face of conflicts over resource access and use, climatechange, new investments in water and energy sectors and other drivers of change.In order to support riparian countries and stakeholders to follow through with required actions, SADCproposed in 2009 a Regional Technical Programme (RTP) to generate common knowledge networks, tostrengthen management and research capacities, and policy and investment options that will enable thelong-term development of the shared fisheries resources in the Zambezi Basin. The RTP should beimplemented through regional and site-specific components that will capture the main developmentchallenges in the Basin. Sites in the RTP would be used as diagnostic sites for assessment and asplatforms for testing and implementing new management and market tools and approaches. Basin-wideassessments, synthesis and dissemination and regional capacity building support will ensure thatknowledge, technologies and management lessons from these sites can be applied in the wider region.SADC could not assure the financial support to cover the full implementation of the RTP (which had anestimated overall budget of US$ 28 million). With the agreement of the riparian beneficiary countries,the initial RTP was then splitted into two sub-programmes:Co-Management of Zambezi <strong>Fish</strong>eries Resources andImproving Value Chain of Zambezi <strong>Fish</strong>eries ResourcesPage 3 of 14
Consequently, the Objective 1 of the RTP, on knowledge and information base for adaptive comanagementof shared fisheries resources in the Zambezi basin, has been splitted into the two abovementionedsub-programmes.Because of the new approach, it became necessary to carry out the development of the LogicalFramework of the Sub-programme nº1, Co-Management of Zambezi <strong>Fish</strong>eries Resources and providingthe related Workplan.1.5 Related programmes and other donor activitiesOther donors are active in the southern African region in support of fisheries at a regional level. Themain ongoing projects are:The World Bank Lake Malawi/Niassa/Nyasa Conservation and Development Project, whichaims at improving the livelihood of people living around the Lake and to improve naturalresource management.The Zambia Pilot Program for Climate Resilience - Phase I, funded by the World Bank. Theproject main sectors are: a) Water, sanitation and flood protection (34%); b) Agriculture, fishing,and forestry (33%); and c) Transportation (33%). The project started in 2010.The FAO Special Programme for Aquaculture Development in Africa - SPADA, endorsed byAU/NEPAD, aims at promoting the drafting of national aquaculture strategies and nationalaquaculture plans which will identify specific sites as well as ways and means for investment.The Southern Africa Regional Environmental Program (SAREP), funded by USAID. Theprogramme in partnership with OKACOM, SADC and other agencies, provides assistance toimprove regional cooperation in management of shared river basins with the goals to conserveand protect biological diversity and improve access to water supply and sanitation. SAREP willbe implemented and funded under a framework USAID-SADC Agreement. The programmebegan in June 2010 and has a duration of 5 years The <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong> programme, operating through the Regional Facilitation Unit (RFU) in Maputoin the Southern Africa (SA) region, consisting of Angola, Botswana, Comoros, Lesotho, Madagascar,Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Seychelles, Swaziland, Zambia, and Zimbabwe respectivefisheries administrations. Programme implementation also foresees coordination and collaboration withkey Regional <strong>Fish</strong>eries Bodies (RFB), Regional <strong>Fish</strong>eries Management Organizations (RFMO) andRegional Economic Organization (REO) such as the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC), the SouthWest Indian Ocean <strong>Fish</strong>eries Commission (SWIOFC), the South East Atlantic <strong>Fish</strong>eries Organization(SEAFO), the Indian Ocean Commission (IOC), the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC)and the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA). Under the specific framework ofthis programme, specific projects have been implemented such asElaboration of a management plan for the Kafue <strong>Fish</strong>ery – Zambia and Support for Devising ofthe Aquaculture Development Strategy for Botswana and the development of outlines for the<strong>Fish</strong>eries Management Plan of the Okavango DeltaIn carrying out the assignment, the consultant is expected to liaise with the aforementioned programmesor institutions when appropriate, in order to gather relevant information and to ensure cooperation withthe projects/programmes and to avoid overlapping of activities.Page 4 of 14
2. OBJECTIVE, PURPOSE AND EXPECTED RESULTS2.1 Overall objectiveThe overall objective of the <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong> Programme is to contribute to the sustainable and equitablemanagement of fisheries in <strong>ACP</strong> regions, thus leading to poverty alleviation and improving food securityin <strong>ACP</strong> States.2.2 PurposeThe purpose of this contract is to assist SADC in the implementation of Sub-programme nº1, “Co-Management of Zambezi <strong>Fish</strong>eries Resources” in the Zambezi Basin, supporting the development ofplanning tools for the start up phase.2.3 Results to be achieved by the ConsultantThe Consultant will achieve the following results as part of this assignment:A new concept note and a Logical Framework for the SADC Sub-programme 1, “Co-Management of Zambezi <strong>Fish</strong>eries Resources” are proposed and approved;Work plan and related timeline for the start up and implementation phases of the Sub-programmeare devised and approved.3. ASSUMPTIONS AND RISKS3.1 Assumptions underlying project interventionThe need for support to the inception phase of the Sub-programme programme “Co-Management ofZambezi <strong>Fish</strong>eries Resources” in the Zambezi basin has been expressed by SADC focal point for <strong>ACP</strong>FISH <strong>II</strong> Programme and the riparian States at different stages during <strong>ACP</strong> FISH <strong>II</strong> prioritiesidentification and regional Action Plan approval phases. Moreover all the Focal Points (FPs) of theconcerned <strong>Fish</strong>eries Administrations (FAs) of the <strong>ACP</strong> FISH <strong>II</strong> SA region approved the implementationof such initiative during the periodical assessment and monitoring workshop of the <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong>Programme held in Maputo in August-September 2010 and in March 2011. In these occasions the FPsalso participated actively in the elaboration of the project ToR. The assumption is that the beneficiarystates and stakeholders are well aware of the intervention and prepared to allocate official hours to itsimplementation.3.2 RiskSince <strong>ACP</strong> FISH <strong>II</strong> is a demand-driven Programme, it is expected that counterpart institutions take all thenecessary measures to ensure the fulfilment of their obligations and responsibilities as set forth under thisproject. Failure to meet that requirement is likely to result in the project not achieving the expectedresults.The Republic of Zimbabwe, is also part of the SADC initiative, however, due to political situation in thecountry (article 96 of Cotonou), <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong> cannot provide direct support to state representatives of thiscountry at the identification workshop. In case alternative funding cannot be found to assure participationof state representatives of this country there is a risk of missing source of information in this process.However, the project can fund representatives from the private sector and the communities.Page 5 of 14
4. SCOPE OF THE WORK4.1 General4.1.1 Project descriptionThe Zambezi Basin comprises some of Southern Africa’s most important water and fishery resources andprovides economic, food security, social and environmental benefits to about 40 million people living inthe Basin and for many others. The entire fishery system is very sensible and exposed to drivers ofchange related to economic activities developed in the area (fishing, agriculture, aquaculture,hydropower, etc), growing populations and urbanizations, changing of climatic conditions, etc.Therefore, there is a need to identify the conditions for the system being resilient and able to adapt tosuch change and to trigger economically and socially suitable development processes for the fisheries ofthis region.The project will support the start up operations of the SADC initiative called “Strengthening comanagementand value chains of shared fisheries resources in the Zambezi basin”, within the Subprogramme1, the first one in which the initial RTP has been split. Previous studies have been carried outfor the identification phase of the RTP initiative, concerning the main existing drivers of change, under anational and regional approach. During that phase, a pre-selection of the main stakeholders in the variouscountries has been done as well but it will have to be confirmed, according to the relevance of thedifferent concerned actors in each country.Starting the Sub-programme nº1, after proper funding is assured, will require an initial workplan for theimplementation stage. During the implementation, the previous identified drivers will be confirmed andthe way they will influence the environmental conditions in the basin will be thoroughly studied and theconclusions shared with the relevant stakeholders.The aim of the present project is therefore the preparation, discussion and devising of a LogicalFramework and Concept Note and a Work plan, which: sets up the Sub-programme development framework and rationale, identifies key stakeholders to be involved in the management of the shared fisheries resources and develops a workplan and a timeline for the start up and implementation of activities.The beneficiaries will be all the concerned <strong>Fish</strong>eries Administrations, authorities/agencies involved in thefisheries planning and management in the region as well as the resources users of the basin as a whole(fishermen, fish traders, local communities, concerned association, etc).The project includes the provision of Technical Assistance (TA) for (a) the proposal of a workplan forthe RTP implementation, , and (b) the organization of an identification workshop gathering regionalstakeholders and aiming at discussing a proposed work plan for the start up phase of the SADC Subprogrammenº1 for the Zambezi River basin. The TA will be delivered by a team of experts composed ofan Inland <strong>Fish</strong>eries Expert (Team leader) in charge of devising the required work plan and of theworkshop facilitation and an Events Coordinator to support the logistics for the organization of theworkshop.Page 6 of 14

Support to the identification phase of the SADC programme ‘Strengthening co‐management and value chains of sharedfisheries resources in the Zambezi basin’1 BackgroundThe Zambezi Basin covers eight countries: Angola, Botswana, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia,Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe with an area of 1.39 million km 2 . It is home to about 40 millionpeople and comprises some of Southern Africa’s most important inland fishery resources, providingfood, income and livelihoods to many people of the region.The entire fishery system – from production to trade – is vulnerable to a range of changes derivedfrom both man‐induced and natural sources: these changes threaten the benefits provided by thefishery resources. In response to this, the eight riparian countries are increasing their individual andjoint efforts to safeguard the future of fisheries. This project forms part of this effort by assisting theSADC to identify key stakeholders and define priorities and main actions for the start up of a RegionalTechnical Programme (RTP) to – strengthen co‐management and value chains of shared fisheriesresources in the Zambezi basin, through the development of a workplan for implementing objectiveone ‐ to improve the knowledge and information base for adaptive co‐management of shared fisheriesresources in the Zambezi basin.The RTP is designed for six years and is structured around four objectives in total, the first is the focusof this project while the other three will cover; effective tools and approaches for addressing keymanagement challenges; enhancing the market and value chains of the Zambezi fisheries throughbusiness‐based innovations; and strengthening human, institutional and technical capacity. Theoutput of this project will be an agreed work plan that will include: identification of objectives,priorities, key actions and timings and identify a group of stakeholders to be involved in the RTPmanagement.The contract for this work that is funded by the <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong> project of the European Union (EU) hasbeen awarded to NFDS Africa. The NFDS team consists of Sandy Davies, Team leader and Inland<strong>Fish</strong>eries Expert and Ulrika Egner, Event Coordinator, with backstopping support from Sinead Sheridanand Mercy Mangena. The contract was signed on the 23rd May and will run for 5 months until 24thOctober 2012.2 Comments on terms of referenceThe only comment is related to the scope of the work that is defined through the expected outputfrom NFDS Africa which is to prepare a work plan for the start up phase for objective number one (i.e.to improve the knowledge and information base for adaptive co‐management of shared fisheriesresources in the Zambezi basin) of the SADC programme. While the overall purpose of the contract isto assist SADC to identify key stakeholders and define priorities and main actions for the start upphase of the programme “Strengthening co‐management and value chains of shared fisheriesresources in the Zambezi basin”. We note that the focus of this work is on the knowledge andinformation base for adaptive co‐management of shared fisheries resources, while objective three ofthe RTP focuses on the value chain. With the time allocated to mapping stakeholders and initiativesand then finding best practice we will focus on the co‐management but aim to also identify valuechain stakeholders important to the overall management process.Project funded by the European Union Page 3 A project implemented by NFDS Africa
Support to the identification phase of the SADC programme ‘Strengthening co‐management and value chains of sharedfisheries resources in the Zambezi basin’3 Approach to the assignmentThe work began with a meeting between the NFDS Africa Team Leader (Sandy Davies) and ResearchAssistant (Sinead Sheridan) and the SADC Secretariat (Mr Nyambe Nyambe, Senior Natural ResourcesAdviser) in Gaborone, Botswana on the 28th May 2012. Details of the project were discussed anddates for the workshop were agreed: for the 27‐30 August 2012 in Kasane, Gaborone. The NFDS Africateam was also able to meet with Ms Margaret Nyirenda, Director of FANR at the SADC Secretariat todiscuss the project.The NFDS team, including Ms Ulrika Egner (Events Coordinator), had a kick‐off email exchangebetween Mr Leone Tarabusi of the <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong> Programme's Regional Facilitation Unit (RFU) in Maputoand Mr Nyambe of the SADC Secretariat with input from Ms Flavia Reale in the <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong> Programmein Brussels.3.1 Approach to workshopThe NFDS team, started to plan the workshop logistics and begin to make initial contact withstakeholders. The draft budget was prepared and discussed with <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong> RFU and the SADCSecretariat and agreement made on the number of participants per country and other such detail (seedraft budget in Section 7.2). A pre‐registration form has been prepared for the workshop (Section 9.3)as well as the draft programme (Section 9.1).The title of the workshop in full is rather long:The SADC workshop to elaborate a workplan for the start‐up phase of the SADC regionaltechnical programme to strengthen co‐management and value chains of shared fisheriesresources in the Zambezi basin, component one — improving the knowledge andinformation base for adaptive co‐management of shared fisheries resources in the Zambezibasin.For short we propose using:The SADC workshop to prepare a workplan for improving the knowledge and informationbase for adaptive co‐management of shared fisheries resources in the Zambezi basin.Our plan is set out in Section 4 and as soon as people respond to invitations flight bookings will bemade.3.2 Approach to technical workThe technical approach of the team prior to the workshop is to prepare a briefing report for input tothe workshop. This has been designed so that it will (see draft table of contents in 9.4): Guide participants through the workshop and allow a structure to the workshop, the proposedprovisional programme for the workshop (Section 9.1) is based on both validating andproviding additional input and elaboration into this report. Once validated and added to, during the workshop the chapters of the briefing paper will formthe basis for the workplan for implementing component one of the RTP, with the addition ofthe costed workplan and the associated logframe added during/after the workshop.Project funded by the European Union Page 4 A project implemented by NFDS Africa
Support to the identification phase of the SADC programme ‘Strengthening co‐management and value chains of sharedfisheries resources in the Zambezi basin’The focus of the briefing report and the work that NFDS will undertake is to:1. Explain the background and rationale for the RTP and this project and to define the scope forthe workplan (Chapter 1);2. Summarise the information base and state of the knowledge of the fisheries in the basin, froma national perspective, but with a regional comparison, probably in a matrix system. Ourintention is to generate country summaries, based on available reports (the RTP reportsshould help with this) and to send out questionnaires to the country focal points to add tothis. Our focus will be on information and knowledge for co‐management of shared resources(Chapter 2);3. Prepare a framework and stakeholder mapping of who does what, with whom and throughwhich mechanisms. This will include a brief overview of the international and national policyand strategy framework and associated processes related to information and knowledge forco‐management, we will do this through review of reports, internet, questionnaires andmeetings (Chapter 3);4. Detail the main issues and challenges in relation to information and knowledge to improve comanagementand then to identify some best‐practice examples as a means to inspire somediscussions and options for interventions. This section may end with an analysis on strengths,weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT), but this will also be a major part of theworkshop (Chapter 4); and5. <strong>Final</strong>ly a brief section will explain the next steps, which during and after the workshop willfocus on preparing a workplan for priority activities (Chapter 5).3.3 Administrative approachThe Draft <strong>Final</strong> Technical Report (DFTR) will be circulated for comments from the <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong> RFUs andthe SADC Secretariat on the 6 September with the draft workplan attached. Taking into account thesecomments, the <strong>Final</strong> Technical Report (FTR) will be prepared and circulated by the 30 September.When the final version of the report (FR) has been agreed, the project will arrange for the report to betranslated to Portuguese and submitted on the 14 October.Project funded by the European Union Page 5 A project implemented by NFDS Africa

Support to the identification phase of the SADC programme ‘Strengthening co‐management and value chains of sharedfisheries resources in the Zambezi basin’6.7 Press notePress Information NoteSADC Regional Workshop on information and knowledge for the co‐management of theshared Zambezi basin fisheries resourcesThe SADC Secretariat, with financial support from the European Union’s (EU) <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong> Programme for Africa‐Caribbean‐Pacific (<strong>ACP</strong>) countries and with technical guidance from NFDS Africa are hosting a four day workshop in Kasane, Botswanastarting on the 27 th August. The objective of the workshop is to strengthen information and knowledge sharing across thebasin by identifying key best practices already in place to ensure effective sharing and use of knowledge, as well asidentifying problems and challenges that need to be overcome to improve information and knowledge sharing. Theseoutcomes will feed into the improvement of overall management of the Zambezi Basin fisheries. The <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong>Programme, supporting this initiative, is a 30 million Euro Programme funded by the 9 th European Development Fundwhich aims to strengthen the capacity of fisheries management in <strong>ACP</strong> Countries. This project is funded by the EuropeanUnion.A SADC Regional Technical Programme (RTP) to – Strengthen co‐management and value chains of shared fisheriesresources in the Zambezi basin – was approved by SADC Ministers responsible for Natural Resources and Environment in2010, at their meeting held in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. The RTP has been designed for a period of six years and isstructured around four objectives. The first, forms the focus of this workshop, on the improvement of the information baseand knowledge for adaptive co‐management of the shared‐fishery resources of the Zambezi Basin. The other objectivescover; effective tools and approaches for addressing key management challenges; enhancing the market and value chainsof the Zambezi fisheries through business‐based innovations; and strengthening human, institutional and technicalcapacity.The Zambezi Basin covers eight countries: Angola, Botswana, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Tanzania, Zambia andZimbabwe with an area of 1.39 million km 2 . It is home to about 40 million people and comprises some of Southern Africa’smost important inland fishery resources, providing food, income and livelihoods to many people of the region.The workshop will provide a platform to engage various stakeholders including traditional authorities and partners and it ishoped that representatives from fisheries departments, local communities, research and academic institutions and NGOswill attend in addition to representatives of regional programmes and initiatives and cooperating partners. The outputfrom the workshop will be recommendations for the work plan that will include: identification of objectives, priorities, keyactions and timings and identify a group of stakeholders to be involved in the RTP implementation and management.The workshop will take place on the 27‐30 August 2012 in Kasane and the Cresta Mowana Safari Lodge.

Prospectus for theSADC REGIONAL WORKSHOP ON THE CO-MANAGEMENT OF THE SHAREDZAMBEZI FISHERIES RESOURCES— Improving the knowledge and information base —Kasane, Botswana: 27 – 30 August 20121 Background and rationaleThe Zambezi Basin covers eight countries: Angola, Botswana, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia,Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe with an area of 1.39 million km 2 . It is home to about 40 millionpeople and comprises some of Southern Africa’s most important inland fishery resources, providingfood, income and livelihoods to many people of the region. The entire fishery system – fromproduction to trade – is vulnerable to a range of changes derived from both man-induced andnatural sources: these changes threaten the benefits provided by the fishery resources. In responseto this, the eight riparian countries are increasing their individual and joint efforts to safeguard thefuture of fisheries.As a part of this effort a SADC Regional Technical Programme (RTP) to – Strengthen co-managementand value chains of shared fisheries resources in the Zambezi basin – was approved by SADCMinisters responsible for Natural Resources and Environment in 2010, at their meeting held inVictoria Falls, Zimbabwe. The programme has been designed for a period of six years and isstructured around four objectives, the first, forms the focus of this workshop, on the improvementof the information base and knowledge for adaptive co-management of the shared-fishery resourcesof the Zambezi Basin. The other objectives cover; effective tools and approaches for addressing keymanagement challenges; enhancing the market and value chains of the Zambezi fisheries throughbusiness-based innovations; and strengthening human, institutional and technical capacity.The workshop is kindly sponsored by theEuropean Union through their <strong>ACP</strong> <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>II</strong>Programme in order to support the start upof the SADC RTP. Starting the RTP, afterproper funding is assured, will require aninitial workplan for the implementationstage that; identifies key stakeholders to beinvolved in the management of the sharedfisheries resources; that identifies andproposes solutions for the managementproblems; that defines objectives andpriorities to be addressed; and that takesinto account the main challenges andexternal constraints; while proposing amethodology for implementation.Prospectus for the SADC Zambezi fisheries workshop Page 1
2 Purpose of the workshopThe purpose of the workshop is to consult widely in order to elaborate the initial workplan for thestart up phase for objective number one, to improve the knowledge and information base foradaptive co-management of shared fisheries resources in the Zambezi basin of the SADC RegionalTechnical Programme.3 ParticipantsThe workshop will provide a platform to engage various stakeholders including traditionalauthorities and partners from the riparian States in the SADC Programme. It is hoped thatrepresentatives from fisheries departments, local communities, research and academic institutionsand NGOs will attend in addition to representatives of regional programmes and initiatives andcooperating partners.4 Expected outcomesThe output from the workshop will be recommendations for the work plan that will include:identification of objectives, priorities, key actions and timings and identify a group of stakeholders tobe involved in the RTP implementation and management.5 Workshop processThe workshop process will follow five areas for sharing information and engaging in discussion:1. Sharing and validating background information and rationale for the RTP and this projectand to define the scope for the workplan;2. Summarising and validating the information base and state of the knowledge of the fisheriesin the basin, from a national perspective with a comparison across the region with a focus oninformation and knowledge for co-management of shared resources;3. Consolidate and validate a framework and stakeholder mapping of who does what, withwhom and through which mechanisms. This will include an overview of the internationaland national policy and strategy framework and associated processes related to informationand knowledge for co-management;4. Identify and consolidate the main issues and challenges in relation to information andknowledge to improve co-management and identify best-practice examples that may bereplicated or scaled up or out in this work plan. This Session will include an analysis ofstrengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT); and5. Agree on recommendations and next steps, to inform the finalisation of the workplan forpriority activities.6 Logistics and organisationThe workshop venue is the Cresta Mowana - Safari Lodge in Kasane, Botswana.

A. LOCATIONMara, Mwanza and Kagera, Tanzania; North Buganda, SouthBuganda and Busoga, Uganda; and Nyanza and Western, Kenya.0:21N-3:00S, 31:39-34:53E; 1,134 m above sea level.B. DESCRIPTIONLake Victoria, the largest of all African Lakes, is also the second widestfreshwater body in the world. Its extensive surface belongs to thethree countries; the northern half to Uganda 43%, the southern halfto Tanzania 51%, and part of the northeastern sector to Kenya 6%.The lake occupies a wide depression near the equator, between theEast and West Great Rift Valleys, but its drainage basin is relativelysmall, being slightly less than three times the lake's surface in area.The lake water is drained at a rate of about 600 m 3 sec -1 , at Jinja onthe northern shore, into the Victoria Nile which flows northward viaLake Albert and the White Nile forming the uppermost reaches of theNile River.The lake shore is highly indented, and there are many isles in thelake, some of which, especially the Sesse Group, are known for theirbeautiful landscape, health resorts and sightseeing places. Abundantprehistoric remains found around the lake indicate the earlydevelopment of agriculture. There are a number of coastal towns suchas Kisumu (Kenya), Entebe (Uganda), Bukoba, Mwanza and Musoma(Tanzania), connected with each other by ship routes and also to thecities of the Indian Ocean coast by railways. The dam constructed in1954 at Owen Falls on the Victoria Nile supplies electricity and waterfor various uses in Uganda and Kenya and Tanzania.C.

Many of the rivers now flowing east into Victoria (including Kagera)once flowed west, at least in the Miocene, Pliocene, and part of thePleistocene eras (within the past 2 million years), possibly eventuallyKagera river into the Nile system, Mara River and more recent upthrust ofthe western side of the basin is thought to have reversed these rivers, andcaused Lake Victoria to form by flowing eastwards. It is possible that the3
lake could have formed as recently as 25,000 to 35,000 years ago, andrecent evidence suggests it may have dried up completely between 10,000and 14,000 years ago.PROBLEM IDENTIFICATIONThe recent history of Lake Victoria is one of dramatic change inlimnological parameters and native fishery stocks from late 1960s to thepresent. Over fishing, exotic species introductions, deleterious land usepractices, and pollution from various sources all contributed to the oxygendepletion and mass extinction of indigenous fishes now taking place. Thequestion is an urgent one for scientists, policymakers, and developmentorganizations worldwide. The current export boom from the lake’s shallow(less than 80 meters at its deepest), murky, and oxygen-depleted watershas come at enormous ecological and social cost. The price includes amassive loss of native species, partially caused by the introduced Nileperch, and the increasing conversion of the fishery to an export commodityrather than local protein source. Hence, Lake Victoria is in danger ofbecoming the world's largest pool of dead water. Already half its nativefish are extinct, and the 30 million people who eke out a living from itstroubled waters arefacing calamity.TANZANIA FISHERIES RESOURCE BASE.Tanzania is well endowed with water bodies with a variety of fish speciesof high economical value. These water bodies include LakesVictoria,Tanganyika and Lake Nyasa . and diverse River Systems,numerous wetlands and an ocean coastline. The country is reasonably richin marine and inland <strong>Fish</strong>eries resource.The National policies for conservation, management and development offisheries resources focuses on the promotion of sustainable exploitation,utilization and marketing of fish resources to provide food, incomeemployment and foreign exchange earnings and effective protection of the4
aquatic environment to sustain development. Some of the areas to beemphasized Include; <strong>Fish</strong>eries Resource Management Integration of environmental protection and development, Efficient resource utilization and marketing, Improving training and Education, Community participation, <strong>Fish</strong>eries Information Management and Dissemination, Gender development’ Cross sectoral collaboration, Integrated Coastal area Management and Regional and Internantional co-operation<strong>Fish</strong>eries Co-Management in Tanzania.Despite having big potential in the fisheries resources ,there has been veryhigh fishing pressure leading to overfishing because of the increasingdemand of fish in relation to high population growth.Depletion of important fish species and environmental degradation of LakeVictoria caused the Government of The United Republic of Tanzania toestablish fisheries Collaborative Management System whereby theGovernment and the fisheries resource users share managementresponsibilities.Fiheries Co management in Tanzania started in 1998 by formulation of<strong>Fish</strong>eries Co management Units known as Beach Management Units(BMUs)in each villages along Lake Victoria shores and the marine coastal line.The <strong>Fish</strong>eries Act No; 22 of 2003 and <strong>Fish</strong>eries Regulations 2009 (GN 308)of Tanzania provide for establishment and Management of BMUs.‣ Beach Management Units are established in accordance with BeachManagement Guidelines made by the Director of <strong>Fish</strong>eries.‣ The jurisdiction area on land of every Beach Management Unit shallbe sa agreed upon by fishers community ,community basedorganization, Village councils, Local Government Authorities andcentral Government.‣ Beach Management Unit may include more tan one fish landingstation.‣ Any Person engaging in fishery activities including fishers fishprocessors, traders, gear repairers, and suppliers and boat builders5
within the Beach Management Units area who meet the followingqualifications shall be registered as member of BMU.a) resident of the village or villages in which the BeachManagement Unit is Established.b) An ardent conservator of the fishery resources.c) Of any sex and age above 18 years;d) Honest, trustful, cooperative, self motivated and ready towork in a group,e) Ready to work in voluntary basis,f) A leader shall know how to read and write in Kiswahili‣ The tenure of the office bearers is three years but mayrenewable once.‣ Immigrant fishers are not allowed to be members of BMU.‣ Non citizen are not allowed.‣ Every Beach management unit meets quarterly,‣ Every BMU is supposed to open a bank account andestablish a financial management system to support itsoperation.‣ Acquire assets to be used solely for its operation.A BMU may associate with other BMUs and co management structures toform higher level BMUs for the purpose of fisheries planning, managementand development.A BMU undertakes self monitoring of its performance each year using amonitoring format provided in the national BMU guidelines.BEACH MANAGEMENT ASSEMBLY‣ Approves BMU constitution and membership fee‣ Elect a BMU committee in accordance with the guidelines.‣ Elects :-1.A chair person and a vice chair person.2.A secretary3.A treasurer and4. any other office bearer of the committee and sub committees.6
‣ May issue financial incentives to its members from its ownresources‣ May approve BMU operating procedures.‣ Assembles quarterly following calendar year, and minutes of themeeting are recorded for public scrutiny,‣ May remove from office any member of the committee and subcommittee by majority votes in that respect on the grounds ofcontravention of the Act, guidelines and operating procedures.‣ Approve annual and quarterly budgets of BMUs‣ Conduct meetings to consider quarterly and annual performancereports.Every fisher fork shall abide by the bylaw and conditions set by the BMU intheir respective areas.FUNCTIONS OF THE BEACH MANAGEMENT UNITS:‣ Develop a BMU constitution ,fisheries management plan and fishlanding station development plan in accordance with higher levelfisheries management plans‣ Develop annual and quarterly work plans and budgets to implementthe management and development plans.‣ Collaborate in fisheries catch assessment surveys and framesurveys.‣ In collaboration with Village Council , develops bylaws and engagesin monitoring control and surveillance in such a way as to reduce theincidences of illegal fishing and fish trading practices andenvironmental degradation within the BMU areas.‣ Ensure sanitary and hygienic conditions at the fish landing stationswithin the BMU area in accordance with standards set by thecompetent authority.‣ Ensure good leadership.‣ Participate in selection processes for the issuance of fishing vesselslicense and fishing within the BMU jurisdiction area to ensureequitable access to resources.‣ Ensure fisheries license fees are paid by BMU members in a timelymanner to the officer in charge of fisheries in the Local GovernmentAuthority.7
‣ Arbitrate to settle fisheries disputes amongst BMU members andother Institutions.‣ Filling a standard tally book indicating fish weight ,value and priceof fish and submit the data to an authorized officer in their locality bythe second day of the following month.‣ To keep an up dated register and submit quqrterly reports onfisheries management and development activities the officerincharge of fisheries in the local Government authority.Every officer in charge of fisheries in the Local Government authorityis required to submit quarterly reports delivered by BMU on <strong>Fish</strong>eriesmanagement and development activities to the Director.The private sector, the community, non-governmental organization andother non-state actors have a big role to play in the development,management and sustainable utilization of the fisheries resources incollaboration with the government.The regional Plan of Action as far as co-management is concerned wasformulated for the purpose of managing fisheries resources in atransparent, trustworthy, good governance, equity sharing of theresources, peaceful settlement of disputes, good neighborlinessaccountability and gender consideration in sustainable fisheries resourcemanagement .Co Management creates sense of ownership to all those witha stake to hold.Over all objectivesCo management can be defined as collaboration between the Governmentand various stakeholders. The Beach Management Units (BMU) amongstakeholders have the overall objective of sustaining the fisheries resourcesbase for optimal economic growth, poverty reduction, food security, foreignexchange earnings, employment and gender equity and improvedstandards of living among fisheries dependant communities.8
The need to have an efficient, equitable and transparent system for comanagementfor long term sustainability of the fisheries resources isinevitable, Therefore, specific objectives has to be in place to ensurepresence of clear policy and legal framework for fisheries resourceprotection and conservation fisheries resource environment: Information on the status of fisheries resources Competitive advantages on the fisheries resources, Explore economic incentives and develop alternative livelihoodsoptions correlated to control fishing capacity. Dissemination of information to all stakeholders at all level invicinity the lake areas. Promote stakeholder participation in management layout. Improve human resource capacity for effective capacitymanagement of the aquatic resources. Encourage mechanisms that address environmental issuesimpacting fisheries. Improve the socio-economic welfare of the fisheries dependentcommunities through co-management.Strategic Intervention: Strengthen co-management institutions at all levels, Develop sensitization and training programs, Take immediate actions for specific fisheries requiring urgentremedial measures based on the control of <strong>Fish</strong>eries resource. Fulfill international obligations especially in relation to code ofconduct for responsible fisheries on the co-management Sensitize the political leadership on co-management as far asfisheries resource concerned, Identify issue affecting fisheries and work with leagal agencies andinstitutions to address them and get the alternative solutions, Identify and promote mechanisms that address socio-economicwelfare of the fish folk and Develop and implement mechanisms for sustainable financing offisheries activities.Specific Actions:Policy and Legal Framework9
Policy and legal framework must be developed and be harmonizedon management of fisheries resource.Giving better consideration to small scale fisheriesExamine and streamline policy and registration relating to licensingin relation to targeted species, type of fishing gear, type and size offishing craft vessels, seaworthiness and any other component relatingto <strong>Fish</strong>eries management of resources.Develop and implement a mechanism to ensure equitabledistribution of benefits accruing from fisheries.Encouraging and support the actions on the national lawenforcement agencies to combat the piracy and give the security offishers on the lake andPromote mechanisms that address poverty alleviation among fishingcommunities.LAKE VICTORIA ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMET AGENCIES ANDUNITS TANZANIA1.

Small, but adult, pioneering floodplain species area valuable, short-lived human food resourceDESTRUCTIVE GEARS –TOTAL BAN NEEDEDStop import and use of monofilament gillnets, as they are moreeffective and increase pressure on already overfished speciesPossession of illegal gear to be made a criminal offence even if notbeing fished (traders supplying such gears as guilty as fishermenusing them)Following illegal methods must remain banned under anycircumstances:Seine nets (dragnets) (possible exception in drying lagoons,only with special agreement with community)Drifting gillnetsDriving fish into gillnets by beating water or bankside vegetationPoisons and explosivesDrag nettingTOURIST RECREATIONAL FISHERYRecreational fishery not generally understood by GovernmentValue of lodges to local communities (particularly employment)Target species: tigerfish (stocks generally healthy); large cichlids(stocks over-exploited, in urgent need of management)Catch-and-release policy, therefore lodges do not affect fishermen’slivelihoodsPotential for conservancies to manage reserves - catch and releaseangling allowed on payment of rod fees to conservanciesHelps to resolve conflict between lodge owners and commercial/subsistence fishermen over resource utilisationBashing3
