Abstract
In March 2010, a delegation of Yemeni
decision makers and practitioners visited five cities in
China: Fuzhou, Xiamen City, Xiangshan, Qingdao and Beijing.
The Yemeni delegation was headed by Mr. Salem Ahmed
Al-Khambashi, Governor of the coastal governorate of
Hadramout, and comprised representatives from relevant
central and local authorities, the Fisheries Cooperative
Union and the private sector. The delegation's aim was
to study the country's institutional arrangements for
coastal zone management:, to examine integrated coastal zone
management (ICZM) arrangements, and the local economics of
sustainable fishing. In view of applying the National ICZM
Decree (2009), the delegation also sought to better
understand the modalities, roles, policies and practices
applied towards effective management of coastal zones and
the fisheries sector in China. The program was designed
based on a needs assessment by Chinese experts who visited
Yemen in May 2009 to learn about the country's coastal system.
