THE FOOD and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) of the United Nations declares June 29 each year as International Fishermen’s Day. Many other Caribbean countries and territories observe it and give due recognition to their fishers. In some Caribbean countries, the week surrounding the day is observed as Fisherman’s Week, and exhibitions and displays, sports and games take place which ‘big up’ the fishing community.
The CLME+ Hub is an initiative of the Secretariat of the CLME+ Interim Coordination Mechanism (ICM), in collaboration with the members of the CLME+ ICM and CLME+ Project Executive Group (PEG) and (prospective) Partner Organizations. Development of the Hub has benefited from the financial support of the UNDP/GEF Project: “Catalysing Implementation of the Strategic Action Programme (SAP) for the Sustainable Management of shared Living Marine Resources in the Caribbean and North Brazil Shelf Large Marine Ecosystems” (CLME+ Project, 2015-2020). The CLME+ Project is executed by the United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS) in close collaboration with a large number of global, regional and national-level partners.
