Fisheries Emergency Rapid Assessment Tool (FERAT)
The Fisheries Emergency Rapid Assessment Tool (FERAT) guides the assessment of fisheries after natural or technological disasters and during complex or protracted emergencies.It provides guidance in the form of decision trees, divided into six steps - ranging from beneficiaries assessment to impact monitoring - that should be followed in sequence.Natural or technological disasters and complex and protracted emergencies seriously affect fishing communities and the ecosystem they depend upon, with different impacts on men and women.In addition, disasters can cause threats to aquatic ecosystems, such as fish species habitats and biodiversity.In such contexts, the rapid restoration of fisheries after a disaster can help maintain their role in providing nutritious food and employment.In addition to providing guidance to field personnel and fisheries officers in carrying out assessments and making decisions about the procurement and delivery of fishing gear and equipment, the manual also offers guidance on monitoring these interventions.

State of Emergency : An Economic Analysis
Nine out of ten constitutions contain explicit emergency provisions.During the pandemic, half of the governments with such constitutions has made use of these provisions by declaring a state of emergency.State of Emergency is the first book to analyse the factors that lead to such provisions being included in newly drafted constitutions.It explores their use – as well as their misuse – and explains the effects that using emergency provisions has.Declaring a state of emergency is particularly challenging in federally constituted states as it endangers the balance of powers between the federal level and the states.This book, therefore, pays special attention to this topic.Focusing on two of the most important recent cases relating to emergency provisions: the Covid-19 pandemic and acts of terrorism, this book uses numerous examples to analyse emergency provisions with a rigorous empirical approach.
