2. REPORT ON
PROCEEDINGS - DAY 1: MONDAY, 15 MARCH 2004

2.1 Introduction

Dr. O’Toole welcomed everyone to the meeting and introduced Ms. Mary
Tamba Baldeh, (Deputy Resident Representative, UNDP) who gave a welcome
speech and opened the meeting. Mr. Ashley Naidoo was introduced as the
Chairperson.

General housekeeping announcements included the introduction
of PCU staff as workshop assistants, identified breakaway rooms,
conference materials and programme literature. An interpreter was
available for communication in Portuguese. Copies of all presentations
were given to the record keeper to be included in the final report.

Announcements included apologies from Ms N. Mbako,the
Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources and Ms A.
Nelumba, the Director General of the Angolan Ministry of Fisheries. Dr.
O’Toole apologised for the short notice with regard to holding this
workshop and pointed out a potential time management problem which may
lead to rescheduling of some presentations. It was noted that this meeting
is intended as a broad-based scoping exercise and not for developing
proposals or training plans for individual organisations. Participants
were asked to briefly introduce themselves prior to the start of the
presentations.

2.2 Presentations &
Discussion

Opening address by Tamba Mary Baldeh, Deputy Res. Rep.
(UNDP)

Presentation #1: Introduction and background to meeting (Dr.
O’Toole, CTA, BCLME Programme) (Annex A)

Presentation #2: Summary of Scoping Report on “Training
& Capacity Needs Assessment for the BCLME” and recommendations (B.
Clark, Anchor Environmental Consultants) (Annex B)

Questions/Comments:

Institutions need to grow in order to effectively build
capacity

Presentation #3: Perceived training and capacity building
needs by Ministry of Fisheries, IIM, IPA and Ministry of Urbanism &
Environment in Angola (V. de Barros Neto, IIM; A. Duarte, IPA; C. Santos,
MUA) (Annex C)

Questions/Comments:

There are a number of training needs in Angola. BCLME can
help to address these by bringing in other donors to assist with
training needs, as well as the continued funding of BENEFIT, especially
with on-the-job training. BCLME should focus on transboundary management
and encourage other donors to address the remaining needs.

Although the relationship between the Marine Research
Institute and the university is a close one now, more participation and
partnership in research projects is anticipated in the future as this
process unfolds.

Presentation #4: Perceived training and capacity building
needs by fisheries and environmental ministries in Namibia (M.
Maurihungiere, MFMR; B. van Zyl, NatMIRC; J. Iitenge, MWTC; S. Shikongo,
MET; R. Roeis, MAWRD) (Annex D)

Questions/Comments:

Staff turnover isn’t just a Namibian problem; it is
probably relevant to all governments worldwide, especially when there is
high pressure on government to manage public services while competing
with the private sector. While it is impossible to prevent, staff could
be motivated to stay through training and a competitive salary.
Additionally the ministry should convince the public sector of the
importance of retaining these individuals in the government. There is
some improvement in staff levels due to the creation of management
posts.

The ministry should summarize past training efforts and
its effectiveness. There has not been a concrete training strategy for
the last five years and probably about 95% of trained staff have left
the ministry.

needs by fisheries and environmental ministries in Namibia (G. Schneider,
MME) (Annex E)

Presentation #6: Perceived training and capacity building
needs by fisheries and environmental ministries in Namibia (M.
Maurihungiere, MFMR; B. van Zyl, NatMIRC; J. Iitenge, MWTC; S. Shikongo,

Presentation #7: Perceived training and capacity building
needs by fisheries and environmental ministries in Namibia (M.
Maurihungiere, MFMR; B. van Zyl, NatMIRC; J. Iitenge, MWTC; S. Shikongo,

Presentation #8: Perceived training and capacity building
needs by fisheries and environmental ministries in Namibia (M.
Maurihungiere, MFMR; B. van Zyl, NatMIRC; J. Iitenge, MWTC; S. Shikongo,
MET; R. Roeis, MAWRD) (Annex H)

Presentation #9: Perceived training and capacity building
needs by MCM in South Africa (J. Augustyn, MCM; W. Sauer, Rhodes
University) (Annexes I and J)

Questions/Comments:

The challenge is to educate managers to develop both
technical knowledge and political function (i.e., leadership, ability to
interact with government). Innovative ways to develop fisheries managers
are needed, since one can only teach management skills and not the
capacity to be a manager. Another problem is how leadership becomes
appointed from outside of the ministry, and appointed persons may not
have relevant backgrounds for the job. Another problem is that
bureaucracy grows along with management levels.

Institutional memory is important to transfer and expand
knowledge and experience. Staff should be rewarded appropriately to
avoid “brain drain”. There is a need for role models for youth and/or
new staff to emulate.

Presentation #10: Overview of training and capacity building
components of BCLME project activities (L. Staegemann, H. Hamukuaya and M.
de Lourdes Sardinha, BCLME Activity Centres) (Annexes K, L and
M)

Questions/Comments:

How will BCLME ensure the transfer of knowledge,
since a significant amount of funds are committed to projects already
involving a capacity building component that will most likely be
contracted out? BCLME's contracts and Terms of Reference require
reporting on training activities and the use of contractors to fulfil
training needs; all but one contract utilises local (i.e., regional)
consultants. The BCLME’s programme review will compare planned vs.
actual training activities and evaluate for efficacy.

Presentation #11: Review of the BENEFIT Training Plan (N.
Sweijd, BENEFIT) (Annex N)

Questions/Comments:

To give an idea of training that’s occurred, BENEFIT has
produced six MSc and two PhD graduates.

There is need for a Training Officer or administrative
position to oversee and coordinate training and interact with donors,
someone to drive the programme.

How would BCLME training programmes link with BENEFIT?
Parameters would need to be defined, since BENEFIT training has focused
on managing research, not other kinds of training i.e. management

Presentation #12: Training and capacity building needs for
environmental impact assessment of industrial developments in the BCLME
(P. Tarr, SAIEA Group) (Annex O)

Questions/Comments:

Who’s watching EIA’s to see the results and if the
recommendations are implemented afterwards? Developers themselves should
be more involved in monitoring EIA’s to check results and that
recommendations are implemented. Regarding external monitoring, costs
are the problem, not the expertise. One solution that would build
capacity would have developers put funds in a kitty for external
monitoring of their activities.

Presentation #13: Training and capacity building for
monitoring, control and surveillance in BCLME region - anticipated needs
(C. Alexanderson, EU/MCS Programme) (Annex P)

Questions/Comments:

MCS stands for monitoring, control and surveillance of
fisheries. The MCS programme has an operational budget of 1,4 million
Euros.

Presentation #14: Addressing the capacity building needs of
the BCLME (G.B. Brundrit and F.A. Shillington, UCT; presented by V.
Shannon) (Annex Q)

Presentation #15: TRAIN-SEA-COAST Specialized courses for
BCLME (K. Prochazka and J. Collins, UWC) (Annex R)

Questions/Comments:

UNDP questioned the time frame of courses, i.e., from time
the course was approved to that of it being introduced; timely feedback,
and organisational staff turnover. Who is the target audience for
courses? For now by invitation only, aimed at people already working in
the field, not students. It is possible to transfer courses from one
country to another through collaboration with the Course Development
Unit in the country. It is up to the CDU in the respective country to
find funds or up to the participants.

Presentation #16: Reflections on how ICT can play a role in
information sharing and capacity building for effective management of the
BCLME (F. Odendaal, EcoAfrica) (Annex S)

Questions/Comments:

Isolated communities may have a problem with access to
computers, however coastal programmes such as conservation programs or
NORAD will have computers. Angola plans to put in resource centres in a
number of points along the coast.

It was decided that the mini-workshops would be moved
forward to Tuesday’s agenda as the entire first day was spent on
information-sharing presentations and discussion.

The meeting adjourned at 16h15.

3. REPORT ON
PROCEEDINGS - DAY 2: TUESDAY, 16 MARCH 2004

3.1
Introduction

Dr. O’Toole welcomed everyone to the second day of the
workshop and reviewed the amended agenda as follows:

Today’s Programme:

8h30 - 11h00 Identify key future training & capacity
building (T&CB) needs

Coffee/tea break

11h00-? Identify some modest training and capacity building
projects for action

11h30-12h00 Discuss TOR’s for T&CB advisory group

12h00-12h30 Strategic planning of the T&CB workshop

12h30 Close

13h00 Lunch

The first task is to identify key future T&CB needs in the two
areas of management and marine science. Participants were asked to
assemble into four mixed groups that will collaborate for a maximum of one
hour on specific questions. Suggestions should be as specific as possible
and rapporteurs should write-up a summary which will be presented to the
plenary, allowing fifteen minutes per presentation.

The three questions under consideration are:

1) What are the transboundary science/management training and capacity
building needs? Prioritise.

2) How can these needs be realistically addressed; (i.e.,
what actions are needed to attain capacity?)

3) How can capacity be retained, continued, maintained and
expanded?

Breakout groups ran from 9h00-11h00 after which a report back session
was held in the plenary.

3.2
Presentations & Discussion

Presentation #1: Marine Science Group #1 (Annex
T)

Presentation #2: Marine Science Group #3 (Annex
U)

Questions/Comments:

Add “Hypothesis creation” under regional technical needs.
Need to develop centres of excellence within institutions, building
partnerships around these (can be virtual centres as well). The idea
should focus on scientists joining programmes, not institutions. Another
issue is rather than retaining trained scientific skill in the region,
data and data products should be retained.

Presentation #3: Management Group #2 (Annex
V)

Questions/Comments:

Remember to include the maritime point of view and the issue
of safe shipping and maritime involvement in the BCLME area. Harbour and
port authorities should be involved in monitoring shipping and related
activities with regard to pollution as affects both resources and stocks.
Although the European Union is addressing this topic, it should maintain
priority in order to have effective management.

Add non-consumptive resource management (i.e., ecotourism,
etc) to the issue of marine pollution to be addressed or integrated with
coastal management.

Presentation #4: Management Group #4 (Annex
W)

Questions/Comments:

With regard to staff retention, it is difficult for
government salaries to be changed as they are pre-determined by the Office
of the Prime Minister. Since the ministries aren’t independent entities,
perhaps this is where the science community needs to “sell science” so
that governments and countries recognise its importance.

3.3 Training
& Capacity Building Workshop and Advisory Board Group
TOR

I. Identify up to nine actions for BCLME/BENEFIT
intervention

May not be appropriate now

Urgent ones only (consultation: IIM, MFMR, MCM, Benefit)

Other actions to await outcome of strategic planning
workshop (to occur July 2004)

II. Strategic Planning Workshop

Move forward six to nine months (July 2004)

Develop TOR for workshop (CTA-consultations)

Use strategic planning expert facilitator to
organize/facilitate workshop

Nominate Advisory group members

Small group 15-20 members

Venue: Johannesburg or Windhoek

NOTES:

Should incorporate BENEFIT strategic planning update with
this agenda also

Fund update of BENEFIT Training Plan - integrate two in
same workshop, BENEFIT as sub-section

Use key inputs from today’s workshop for the next one in
July-will be a consolidation of information and professional output to
use as a lever with donors to solicit more funds

Report from this workshop will be generated electronically
to all participants, to gather more inputs also

III. T&CB Advisory Group Draft TOR

Provide advice to the BCLME Activity Centres and PCU on
T&CB projects;

Assist with the development of T&CB projects;

Coordinate activities and provide support for development
of strategic planning/T&CB workshop;

Identify gaps in T&CB that need addressed and
prioritise them;

Work closely with experts, bodies and institutions
including relevant NGOs and stakeholders;

Monitor and evaluate T&CB programme and report back on
progress;

Coordinate administration and management of T&CB
projects with BENEFIT Training Plan;

Promote T&CB in BCLME region including on-the-job
training, distance learning and specialised courses, (e.g.,
Train-Sea-Coast);

Build in long-term sustainability.

Comments:

Monitor and evaluate BCLME programme, not projects;

See long-term sustainability built into the TOR;

Will this be a BCLME T&CB programme in the future?
What is this effort leading towards in the future? Address these
questions at July’s planning workshop;

Do we nominate members as part of Advisory group members
will be nominated during the July workshop, in the interim two to three
people can be identified to help with planning;

Nominations should be up to three members per country to
include people from other sectors; (Include representation from those
organisations to be trained in the planning phase). Ensure tertiary
institutions are informed as to what expectations are.

3.4
Closing

Dr. O’Toole thanked all participants, Rapporteurs, and the
PCU staff for organising the workshop. It was a good networking and
information-sharing experience.

The workshop report will be available to all participants in
two to three weeks’ time.

The meeting closed at 12h30.
