Abstract

The workshop was held in Nadi, Fiji on 11-13 April 2016 and developed a regional Non-Detriment Findings template that could be used by individual Parties, provided a regional approach to shared stocks of CITES listed sharks, and discussed on-going regional data collection and monitoring, compliance, surveillance and traceability.
A range of key points, challenges, recommendations and resource needs were identified.
