Policy Research and Documentation
The original impetus came in 1983, when SIFFS took up the boat building programme.
Policy Research and Documentation forms a thrust area of SIFFS operations. Educating the policy makers, fisherfolk and other people by entering into dialogues with them is undertaken as part of policy research and documentation. To this end, SIFFS has undertaken many research projects, singly and jointly.
Specific Objectives
Promotion of socio-economic, environmental and technical investigation of issues pertinent to fisheries in response to fisheries development and management needs.
Enhance coordination and cooperation between relevant organisations working in fisheries' related activities
Enhance awareness and capacity of stakeholders to ensure sustainable fishery
Raise consensus among stakeholders on approaches to address the sustainable management resources.
Programmes
Studies, Surveys and Research
Information Database System of Fishermen Members and Fish Prices
