The primary objective of this study was to undertake a rapid inventory of the training facilities available for fisheries management, aquaculture, and post-harvest management in the Eastern and Southern Africa - Indian Ocean region (ESA-IO). On the basis of this inventory, the second objective was to identify specific training solutions relevant to the region, with potential support for their implementation from the SmartFish programme (FAO/COI/EU). The third objective was to provide institution s, the private sector and other projects in the region with comprehensive information about available training initiatives to boost national and intra-regional use of such facilities and capacities in the region. The study focused on six countries of the ESA-IO region: Madagascar, Reunion (France), Mauritius, Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda.
