Enhancing the contribution of small-scale fisheries to food security and sustainable livelihoods. An overview of the FAO Umbrella Programme for the promotion and application of the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication
Through the FAO Umbrella Programme for the promotion and application of the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication (FAO SSF Umbrella Programme), we raise awareness about challenges and opportunities in small-scale fisheries; we strengthen the science-policy interface by generating better information on small-scale fisheries; we empower small-scale fisher and fish worker organisations and increase governments’ knowledge, skills and capacity; and we support the implementation of the SSF Guidelines by creating an enabling environment. The Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication (SSF Guidelines) are the first internationally agreed instrument dedicated entirely to the small-scale fisheries sector. They complement other global instruments and initiatives to achieve sustainable small-scale fisheries through a human rights-based approach. Implementing them can for instance act as a springboard towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) by 2030, in particular SDG 14.b: to “provide access for small-scale artisanal fishers to marine resources and markets”. We have so far supported activities to implement the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication (SSF Guidelines) in over 40 countries and in various global and regional forums.

Through the FAO Umbrella Programme for the promotion and application of the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication (FAO SSF Umbrella Programme), we raise awareness about challenges and opportunities in small-scale fisheries; we strengthen the science-policy interface by generating better information on small-scale fisheries; we empower small-scale fisher and fish worker organisations and increase governments’ knowledge, skills and capacity; and we support the implementation of the SSF Guidelines by creating an enabling environment.
The Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication (SSF Guidelines) are the first internationally agreed instrument dedicated entirely to the small-scale fisheries sector. They complement other global instruments and initiatives to achieve sustainable small-scale fisheries through a human rights-based approach. Implementing them can for instance act as a springboard towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) by 2030, in particular SDG 14.b: to “provide access for small-scale artisanal fishers to marine resources and markets”.
We have so far supported activities to implement the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication (SSF Guidelines) in over 40 countries and in various global and regional forums.
