Fisheries Without Borders trains stakeholders on sustainable fisheries management amid climate threats

Fisheries Without Borders (FWB) has organised a capacity-building workshop for fishermen, fish processors, community leaders and marine scientists as part of efforts to strengthen sustainable fisheries management in the face of climate change.

Participants from coastal fishing communities across Ghana took part in training sessions, group discussions and practical exercises on fisheries co-management, an approach that promotes collaboration between fishing communities and government in the management of marine resources.

The workshop, held at the Conference Hall of the National Fisheries Association of Ghana (NAFAG), formed part of a regional initiative involving Ghana, Nigeria and Benin aimed at addressing declining fish stocks in the Gulf of Guinea through collaborative fisheries management.
