Fisheries learning exchanges: a short guide to best practice.

Abstract

This handbook provides guidance on developing, implementing, evaluating and sustaining fisheries learning exchanges (FLEs). A collaboration between FAO, the NGO Blue Ventures and the research initiative FLExCELL, it draws on experiences from dozens of learning exchanges over the past decade to provide actionable, accessible advice and best practices. While anyone seeking to better understand FLEs will find the information presented here of use, the guide is aimed primarily at practitioners such as NGOs and government workers acting as technical partners to fishing communities in tropical developing countries.
