The Caribbean Regional Fisheries Mechanism (CRFM), a leading regional body dedicated to sustainable fisheries management across the Caribbean basin, has announced a major milestone for marine science and policy research in the region: the complete proceedings from its 20th Anniversary Scientific Conference are now accessible to the public via the organization’s official digital platforms.
The released material is structured into two distinct, comprehensive volumes to support easy navigation for researchers, policymakers, industry stakeholders, and students. Volume 1 compiles peer-reviewed technical papers covering cutting-edge research on fisheries ecology, stock assessment, sustainable harvesting practices, climate change impacts on marine ecosystems, and innovative aquaculture development across the Caribbean. Volume II gathers in-depth national reports submitted by member states, documenting on-the-ground status of fisheries and aquaculture sectors, regulatory updates, and ongoing conservation initiatives.
Among the national reports available for individual download is the full *National Report on the Status of Fisheries and Aquaculture in Grenada*, which is hosted directly on the CRFM’s website for dedicated access. Both the full two-volume special publication and individual research papers are listed on CRFM’s official publications page, allowing users to access content in open-access formats.
