AS we commemorate World Fisheries Day on Nov 21 every year, let us take this time to think about the frequently underappreciated work of small-scale fisheries communities, particularly the fishers, processors and traders who gather aquatic foods from ponds, rivers, lakes and oceans all over the world.
To secure sustainable fisheries and healthy oceans in the face of the challenge posed by climate change, WorldFish collaborates with partners to bring shared prosperity through aquatic food systems by providing essential knowledge and innovations to those who need them most.
