FAO Holds Validation Workshop

The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) in partnership with stakeholders Thursday conducted a validation workshop for the Updated Tanbi Co-Management Plan and Market Strategy Validation as part of FIsH4CAP program for upgrading strategy for the mangrove oyster value chain held at Ocean Bay Hotel in Bakau.


The FISH4ACP programme has facilitated the development of an upgrading strategy for the mangrove oyster value chain in close collaboration with key value chain actors and stakeholders: the Department of Fisheries of the Ministry of Fisheries, Water Resources and National Assembly Matters, which is responsible for the management and development of the fisheries resources in The Gambia, TRY oyster women association, harvesters, other government institutions and civil society.


The agreed vision for upgrading the mangrove oyster value chain is: "By 2032, there will be a vibrant and sustainable oyster sector in the Gambia, with oyster value chain actors being resilient to potential shocks and generating profits through an increase in production and enhanced value addition."
