Recommendation for future follow-up action
Based on the proposal and recommendation of the workshop, the immediate follow-up activity includes the preparation of an on-site training program, in close cooperation with MOFI through Mr. Ngo Duc Sinha to ensure that on-site training activities are in line with national priorities. Activities include the design and publication of training materials for HRDs (local and national) using the Regional Fisheries Management Guidelines framework of the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries.
To further facilitate the development of such training materials, SEAFDEC may also coordinate with the MOFI Legislation Department through Mr. Ding Xuan Thao and also with the FAO-Sida Project on Collecting Information for Coastal Fisheries Management through their project coordinator Dr. Theo Ebbers to use their developed awareness materials in capacity building for fisheries officials and stakeholders to strengthen the issue related to the current status of fisheries in Vietnam.
