REBYC-III project convenes second PSC meeting

REBYC-III CLME+

The “Strategies, technologies, and social solutions to manage bycatch in tropical Large Marine Ecosystem Fisheries (REBYC-III CLME+),” project will convene its second Project Steering Committee (PSC) Meeting on 6 February 2025.

The meeting will be a virtual one and participants will include National Focal Points (NFPs) and heads of the national fisheries administrations of the project’s participating countries, representatives from partner organisations and other regional and international stakeholders.

The objectives of the meeting are to:

  • provide a progress status and review achievements of Year 1 of the project.
  • review and approve the Year 2 work plan and budget.
  • identify and address any challenges to project implementation.

The US$5.3 million project is funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) Trust Fund, implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and executed by the University of the West Indies (UWI), Faculty of Food and Agriculture (FFA).

It is expected to be implemented over a four-year period in Barbados, Guyana, Suriname, and Trinidad and Tobago. The objective of the REBYC-III CLME+ project, is to manage bycatch and reduce discards in the Caribbean and North Brazil Shelf Large Marine Ecosystems (CLME+) thereby promoting sustainable and responsible fisheries that provide economic opportunities while ensuring the conservation of marine living resources, and in doing so support country implementation of the CLME+ Strategic Action Plan.
