Capture fisheries are and will remain the dominant supply of fish for many least developed countries for decades

Challenges•Severe pressure from overfishing, particularly in resource-poor regions•Highly complex ecological, social and institutional environments•Productivity and sustainability often undermined by poor governance•Gender and social inequities
![Page 4: WorldFish research program: Resilient small-scale fisheries](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070519/58f293bd1a28aba0578b45a3/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Overharvesting•Increased fishing to meet local and distant demand •Insecure resource tenure and user competition

Sustainability•Infrastructure development (e.g. dams) •Agricultural intensification

Policy•Inadequate policy recognition of the importance of small-scale fisheries

Research needs
• Resilience-based analyses and interventions to support improved governance in coastal and inland systems
• Analysis of trends in the context of global food systems
• Policy research to enhance governance, improve safety nets and build resilience
![Page 8: WorldFish research program: Resilient small-scale fisheries](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070519/58f293bd1a28aba0578b45a3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Small-scale fisheries contribute to Sustainable Development Goals
• Reducing poverty
• Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources
• Increasing food security
• Gender equality
• Protecting and restoring water-related ecosystems
• Sustainable livelihoods and economic growth • Small island developing states and the
particular challenges they face

SDG 14: Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources
• By 2020, effectively regulate harvesting and end overfishing… implement science-based management plans...
• By 2030, increase the economic benefits to
small island developing states and least developed countries from the sustainable use of marine resources, including through sustainable management of fisheries, aquaculture and tourism
• Provide access for small-scale artisanal
fishers to marine resources and markets
