The Rome declaration: ten steps to responsible inland fisheries

Inland fisheries play important roles in providing food security and human well-being to millions of people throughout the world. Particularly in developing countries, inland fisheries are critical for food and nutritional security, as they provide a vital source of protein, essential fatty acids, minerals and micronutrients. However, data on inland fisheries are often poor and the information on which to base policy on inland fisheries is lacking or incomplete. As a result, inland fisheries are often neglected from national and international development plans. This neglect, coupled with increasing competition for land and freshwater, threatens the future existence of inland fisheries. To address these issues, FAO in partnership with Michigan State University convened a global conference, Freshwater, Fish and the Future in Rome, 2015. This policy brief describes 10 steps derived from the conference that will help ensure responsible inland fisheries for future generations.
