Report of the African Regional Workshop on Development of a Global Information System for Farmed Types of Aquatic Genetic Resources (Incorporating a Review of Strategic Priorities for a Global Plan of Action), Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, 2–4 December 2019
This workshop was the first of a series of regional meetings to generate feedback on the Registry of Farmed Types of Aquatic Genetic Resources (AqGR), being developed by FAO in response to a request from the Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (Commission). The workshop was supported by a grant from the Government of Germany and also included an activity seeking feedback on an outline of a Global Plan of Action for AqGR, also requested by the Commission. The objectives of the workshop were to: promote standardized use of nomenclature and terminology in the descriptions and categorization of AqGR, especially below the level of species (i.e. farmed types); to identify the priority regional stakeholders in an information system, specifically a Registry of Farmed Types of AqGR; to evaluate the key elements of the prototype Registry using regionally relevant species and their farmed types; review, for each of the four Priority Areas of the Global Plan of Action (GPA), the Strategic Priorities (SPs) and identifying possible activities under each SP; and identify potential indicators for the effective monitoring of AqGR within a future GPA.
