The Regional Workshop on the 1995 FAO Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries in the Central Asian region: a Call to Action was organized by the Center for Development of Fishery of the Ministry of Agriculture and Water Resources of Uzbekistan, in close technical collaboration with FAO and with organizational support from the State Committee for Nature Protection of the Republic of Uzbekistan and the Institute of Water Problems of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan. The Workshop was held in the context of the need for increased awareness on and dissemination of the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries within Central Asia, and particularly the guidance it provides to Governments and other fisheries sector stakeholders in terms of the human aspects of responsible fisheries management and development, participatory approaches, the role of fisheries in improving rural livelihoods, alleviation of poverty and the achievement of food security. The Workshop aimed to bring together policy-makers, administrators, sector representatives and other main stakeholders from the fisheries sectors in the Central Asian countries to increase awareness on and understanding of the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries; foster steps towards the more effective implementation of the Code in the Central Asian region; encourage fishery policy revisions reflecting the objectives and general principles of the Code; and encourage an inclusive approach to management whereby stakeholders are involved in the development and review processes and the implementation of measures rather than an exclusive process where stakeholders are largely excluded from the processes. The Workshop was attended by stakeholders from Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkey and Uzbekistan. The Workshop participants produced a number of conclusions and practical recommendations in support of the above workshop aims. The Workshop recognized that the Code provides a suitable framework and guide for environmentally compatible, socially acceptable and economically viable development and management of the fisheries sector in the Central Asian region. It was noted that some of the countries in the region (e.g. Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan) are using the Code as guidance in their policy and legal framework development. The Workshop concluded that additional efforts are needed by all fisheries and aquaculture sector stakeholders in Central Asia, including public and private sector stakeholders (amongst others policy-makers, fishery officers and inspectors, trainers and extensionists, fisherfolk and aquaculture.
