This document explores good practices in support of sustainable small-scale fisheries and
the implementation of the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale
Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication (SSF Guidelines). It
includes eight case studies from across the world and it is hoped that the experiences that
these present will help inform policy and policy processes and, in this way, promote
sustainable small-scale fisheries according to the SSF Guidelines and the human
rights-based approach to development (HRBA).

PAPER
This Caribbean Billfish Management and Conservation Plan has been prepared to reverse
the trend of declining stocks of billfish species within the Western Central Atlantic Ocean
and its adjacent seas, and to address unsustainable fishing practices. The Members of the
Western Central Atlantic Fishery Commission (WECAFC), Caribbean Regional Fisheries
Mechanism (CRFM), Central America Organization for Fishery and Aquaculture (OSPESCA)
and the Caribbean Fisheries Management Council (CFMC) are concerned about the billfish
stocks in the region. Therefore, they developed together, through the Recreational
Fisheries Working Group, and in close collaboration with all key stakeholders in the
Consortium on Billfish Management and Conservation (CBMC) this plan in the period
2015–2018. The plan recognizes the mandate of the International Commission for the
Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) over the billfish stocks, and supports the
implementation of the ICCAT recommendations in the region. The objective of this Plan is
to outline and guide the implementation of a suite of billfish management measures over
a five-year period at regional and sub-regional scales to help secure the potential future
benefits that can accrue from billfish stocks in the Caribbean. The overarching goal is to
improve the management and conservation of billfish stocks.

This report offers a review of numerous tiny species
that are often undervalued. It recommends efforts
to compile better catch statistics and recognize the
socio-economic and nutritional importance of these
“low-value” fish.
