Fisheries contribute greatly to the
well-being of many millions of people. The sector generates
employment and economic values that are important to
individuals, communities and national economies. However,
the world's fishery resources are not infinite, and
appropriate conservation must be employed for ensuring
sustainable livelihood through fisheries in the future as
well. The Big Numbers Project, a collaborative effort by the
Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), WorldFish Center
and World Bank, addresses the lack of accurate and
accessible disaggregated information on small and
large-scale fisheries, in inland and marine waters,
currently experienced in the international fisheries arena.
This is a preliminary report of the project, giving a
summary of the results of case studies carried out in a
selected number of countries and providing a first analysis
of the differences between marine and inland small and
large-scale fisheries in developing countries.
