Abstract
An international e-learning network for the global small-scale fisheries (SSF) movement is both possible and valuable, and through this project, a model was developed for an SSF network. The most challenging practical issue was providing interpretation in Spanish and French, over Skype, and scheduling tele-learning sessions, given the number of different time zones involved. Because the learning circles were participatory and self-directed, each evolved according to the needs and interests of the group. The project established a learning network and looked at ways for a global SSF network to sustainably continue beyond the life of the project.
