The Aquaculture Governance Toolkit is one of the outcomes of the project OFWG. The Toolkit offers a comprehensive resource, including problems, methodologies, and guidelines addressing governance challenges, alongside a series of assessment tools and illustrative case studies to enhance public understanding of the issues and their potential solutions. This Toolkit has been developed in co-creation with APEC defining SSA governance, identifying challenges (workshop in person), discussion tool selection (workshop online) and Desk research for examples. The Governance Toolkit is essential because it addresses the critical need for a structured and systematic approach to understanding, assessing, and responding to complex governance challenges, utilizing a seven-steps approach.
