Synopsis (short abstract) This brochure summarizes the findings from the pre-feasibility studies that form the basis of the value chain finance strategies in nine African FISH4ACP partner countries. FISH4ACP is an initiative of the Organisation of African, Caribbean and Pacific States (OACPS) aimed at making fisheries and aquaculture value chains in twelve OACPS member countries more sustainable. It contributes to food and nutrition security, economic prosperity and job creation by ensuring the economic, social and environmental sustainability of fisheries and aquaculture in Africa, the Caribbean and the Pacific.
