An important commitment was made in 2001 to implement an ecosystem approach to fisheries management," said McLachlan.
A definition recently provided by The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (16) states that An ecosystem approach to fisheries strives to balance diverse societal objectives, by taking into account the knowledge and uncertainties about biotic, abiotic and human components of ecosystems and their interactions and applying an integrated approach to fisheries within ecologically meaningful boundaries.
Other issues discussed during the COFI meeting included responsible fish trade; the importance of the aquaculture sector and the need for its sustainable growth in a responsible manner; social problems adversely affecting fishing communities, such as illness and poverty; the implementation of the ecosystem approach to fisheries, and the strengthening of regional fisheries management organizations as well as regional fishery bodies.
