JOIN FISH4ACP’S VIRTUAL TOUR ON AQUATIC FOOD SYSTEMS TRANSFORMATION

Join FISH4ACP’s virtual tour on aquatic food systems transformation. Learn how local communities improve the food they eat, the income they earn and the environment in which they live.

Did you know that a little fly can make a big difference for small-scale tilapia farmers in Zimbabwe? Or, how Gambian oyster producers benefit when they move to oyster farming, just like the mangroves in which they work?

Join the FISH4ACP virtual tour and learn how local communities from The Gambia to Zimbabwe change their aquatic food systems, and improve the food they eat, the income they earn and the environment in which they live.

Food systems comprise all that is needed to feed and nourish people. They are powerful drivers of change. Transforming them can play an essential role in feeding a growing global population while protecting our planet.

Hosted by FISH4ACP, the virtual tour is bringing together fishers, harvesters and fish workers, value chain stakeholders, experts, donors and the development community in an online conversation on aquatic food systems transformation – from the bottom up.

The event will cover:

• Videos on oyster farming in The Gambia and tilapia farming in Zimbabwe.
• Debate with local stakeholders and experts on transformative change in aquatic food systems.
• Discussions – actively engaging the audience – on issues related to aquatic food systems in Africa, the Caribbean and the Pacific.
