5. National Organisation of Fisheries Value Chain Associations in Senegal
As a measure to strengthen the fisheries value chain, the Government of Senegal created the Commission Nationale dAppui’ à l’Aménagement’ de la Pêcherie (CNAAP) by Ministerial Order 07397 of 19 May 2016. The CNAAP is a consultative body composed of the Ministry of Fisheries and Maritime Economy, sectoral associations, such as CRODT, UPAMES and GAIPES, and CLPAs, throughout the territory to support fisheries resource management. By involving relevant organisations encompassing all stages of the value chain, from catching and landing to distribution, processing and export, the CNAAP, in collaboration with the National Executive Bureau of the CLPA Network, provides a discussion platform aimed at promoting the overall management of fisheries resources at the national level.
