Book Description
Climate change related natural disasters pose serious threats and risks to livelihoods of fishermen and women as well as to food security in the Caribbean. To respond to these threats and risks, the FAO, the Department of State of the United States of America and the World Bank introduced an initiative on climate risk insurance for the Caribbean Fisheries sector as part of a global initiative on Blue Growth. In support of this initiative a survey was conducted to identify fisheries assets that could be insured, value these assets, identify climate smart fisheries investments and practices and carry out an insurance needs and demand survey. This Circular presents survey findings from Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Grenada, St Lucia, St Kitts and Nevis and St Vincent and the Grenadines. Some of the key findings are that: 97 percent of the fishing vessels and fishing assets were not insured, while in each of the CARICOM countries there is at least one local insurer offering marine insurance; 83 percent of the fishers would purchase insurance coverage for their vessels if it would be more affordable; only 17 percent of the fishers had a health insurance and 20 percent had an life insurance policy. Moreover, more than one-third of the fishers would be interested to invest in safe harbor, anchorage, haul out and vessel storage facilities, including installation of bumper rails on piers and the use of fenders on boats and piers, if this would reduce insurance premiums. Based on the findings of the insurance demand survey, an organizational arrangement for a Caribbean Fisheries Risk Insurance Facility (CFRIF) was developed, presented at various regional fora and shared with interested stakeholders.

This report contains the findings of two missions. One visited Uruguay and Argentina, and the other covered Chile, Ecuador and Peru. The report on Uruguay and Argentina starts with a brief overview of the fishing industry and the scope of fisheries and aquaculture research. Subsequent sections describe the organization of research paying special attention to issues such as funding and prioritization. Further, the impact of research on the fishing and aquaculture industries of Uruguay and Argentina are assessed. General conclusions as well as recommendations are also presented. The studies of Chile, Ecuador, and Peru start with a brief overview of the state of fisheries and aquaculture in the area. This is followed by an analysis of research capabilities in these three countries. Opportunities for enhancing the contributions of research to the economic and social progress of the sector are examined. Conclusions of the mission are also presented.
