Chimaera portal validation workshop. Flic en Flac, Mauritius

The Chimaera Validation Workshop was organized to present stakeholders with the final version of the Chimaera Regional Fishery Portal prototype. The portal prototype was developed based on the recommendations of the 4th Scientific Committee (SC) of the South West Indian Ocean Fishery Commission (SWIOFC) and Harmonization Workshop (Flic en Flac, Mauritius, 2 - 4 July 2012). The Chimaera Validation Workshop, held at the Pearle Beach Hotel, Flic en Flac, Mauritius on 23 and 24 January 2014, brought together potential Regional Fisheries Portal users, including fishery experts, marine biologists, fishery management experts, socio-economic experts and statisticians. The three source information systems data managers (FIRMS, WIOFish and StatBase) were also brought to the workshop to provide knowledge of the fisheries information structure in the region. Thanks to the very active and collaborative work carried out by the group, the workshop achieved its objectives: validation of the current ve rsion of the prototype and identification of possible solutions for improving both the layout and content. Some major recommendations arose during the workshop, such as the necessary review of the fisheries management domain, enrichment of the portal with more on-line help, and review of the need to run several searches for a preselected list of results. Very interesting contributions for the new domains were also collected. Issues on sustainability were also discussed to identify the best scena rio to launch the portal on the Internet to make it accessible to the public.
