SADC Fisheries Quarterly Update, Vol. 1, Nr. 1


Current status of fisheries in the SADC region.

For more than two decades, the SADC member states are guided by the 2001 SADC Protocol on Fisheries, endorsed by SADC Heads of State. Since then, the participating governments worked untiringly to address the key issues. One of them, IUU fishing, is actively tackled by the MCSCC. Regularly, the SADC Fisheries Quarterly Update summarizes the current situation, main threats and key facts regarding the fisheries sector in the region. Apart from that, the latest edition published this summer, sets its focus on the MCSCC and the recent developments in 2023.
