Vulnerability and Adaptation of Coastal Fisheries to Climate Change: Monitoring Indicators and Survey Design for Implementation in the Pacific

Vulnerability and Adaptation of Coastal Fisheries to Climate Change: Monitoring Indicators and Survey Design for Implementation in the Pacific

This report summarises the outcomes of an expert workshop coordinated by the Secretariat of the Pacific Community to discuss current coastal fisheries and climate change monitoring and research projects, and design a monitoring program. The workshop was held at the Secretariat of the Pacific Community from 19-22 April 2010, and included representatives from many Pacific Island Countries and Territories, as well as scientists working in relevant fields. The workshop was an initiative of the Coastal Fisheries Programme, and was facilitated by Johanna Johnson of C2O Consulting. This report has been prepared for the Secretariat of the Pacific Community to outline the main objectives and outcomes of the workshop. The Coastal Fisheries Programme is the primary contact for questions about the background of the workshop, workshop outcomes, next steps for the project and longer-term goals. All reasonable efforts have been made to ensure that the content of this report accurately reflects discussions held by participants during the workshop.
