dc.description	This workshop report summarises a regional technical meeting held in Mauritius in April 2017 to review the status of sharks and rays in the Western Indian Ocean and to develop a coordinated approach for their conservation and management. It outlines participation from national, regional, and international experts, and describes sessions covering status assessments, national presentations, and methodological tools. The report highlights key findings, including limited management measures, insufficient data on biodiversity, fisheries, and trade, and significant knowledge gaps.
