dc.descriptionThe Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem (BCLME) is one of the world’s richest marine ecosystems and supports an abundance of life, sustaining both small and large-scale fishery activities that contribute to local food security and employment for hundreds of thousands of people in areas of limited alternatives, and serve as important drivers of economic development. The fisheries sectors in the three countries of the BCC –Angola, Namibia and South Africa –face a number of serious challenges to ensuring sustainable use of the productive but vulnerable marine resources that support them. The decreased productivity of fishery resources impacts upon livelihoods and, in some small-scale communities, the food security of those dependent upon fisheries, leading to a reduction in the economic returns from commercial fisheries at national and regional levels. In addition, climate variability and change represent an additional challenge that could potentially push the natural ecosystem beyond its limits. In this context, the project was designed to build resilience and reduce the vulnerability to climate change of the marine fisheries and mariculture sectors within the BCLME.
