This report presents the outcomes of the Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem Regional Workshop on Assessing Climate Change Vulnerability in Fisheries and Aquaculture, held in Namibia in April 2013. It presents an initial review of the bio-physical and biological implications of climate variability and change on the region’s fisheries. It reviews the latest stages in research on and application of climate variability and change vulnerability methodologies and discusses their appropriateness to the region's adaptation planning needs. Last, it identifies key elements of vulnerability for the region, including climate-related drivers of change and adaptive capacities along the entire fisheries and aquaculture value chains.
