Review and Audit of the Institutional Arrangements that Impact on the Artisanal Fisheries Sector in the BCLME Region. - Component A
Introduction
The Benguela Current large Marine
Ecosystem (BCLME) Programme is a multi-sectoral, multi-faceted, GEF
funded regional initiative involving South Africa, Namibia and Angola
and is aimed at facilitating the integrated management, sustainable
development and protection of this unique eastern boundary upwelling
ecosystem. The GEF funded component of the BCLME programme was
developed specifically to address priority regional transboundary
issues and problems as identified through a comprehensive
multi-stakeholder consultation process.
Through the BCLME regional consultation process several projects
relevant to the future management and possible development of the
artisanal fisheries sector were identified. This first research project
LMR/AFSE/03/01/A, is concerned with gaining an understanding of the
policy and institutional environment within which the artisanal fishing
sector operates in the BCLME region.

Aims and
Objectives
The overall aim of this project is to undertake a review and audit of
the institutional arrangements that govern, and impact on, the
artisanal fisheries sector in the BCLME region with a view to
identifying inconsistencies and incoherencies and where appropriate,
identify areas of harmonization or recommend in-country policy and
institutional reforms. |
