Descripción
Fisheries remains an important source of food, income and cultural identity for Pacific Island nations. While the majority of fish consumed locally comes from coastal fisheries, production has not increased significantly in recent decades despite indications at the national level in many countries of increasing fishing pressure.
The project “Enhancing livelihoods and food security through fisheries with nearshore fish aggregating devices in the Pacific” designed to contribute to the safe, sustainable development of nearshore fish aggregating device (FAD) fisheries, supported by co-management approaches and the development of value-adding and alternative livelihoods to diversity income sources.
