The project is executed by the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO), and funded by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) for a duration of four years.

The document presents the results of socio-economic investigations of the Lake Kivu fisheries with emphasis on the organizational structure of the fisheries, investments, fishermen's status, their attitudes and problems, etc. These investigations were conducted jointly by the IFIP Project and the Fisheries Development Project, based in Gisenyi, Rwanda. The objectives of this study were to up-date and assess the socio-economic structure of fisheries on Lake Kivu, to gain an insight into the performance of all different fishing economic units on the lake, and to benchmark data for the future assessment of this fishery's evolution.
