ProjectFactsheetHealthy Aquatic Production through Prevention and Progressive Management Strategies to Support Sustainable Aquatic Food Systems - GCP/GLO/979/NOR 2021
Also available in:
No results found.With the globalization of modern aquaculture through intensified systems, diversification and international trade in consumable and live products, and with changes to the ecosystem including climate change, the sector is confronted with a range of biosecurity challenges posed by exotic, endemic and emerging diseases, and the transboundary spread of these infectious agents. If not appropriately addressed, these challenges will continue to negatively impact the aquaculture sector, resulting in limited yields, decreased profits, low investments and the reduced contribution of aquaculture to the food and nutrition security and livelihoods of communities dependent upon it. The project’s overall objective was to support countries in the sustainable development of their aquaculture industry through the improvement of systems and practices in biosecurity, enhanced and enabling legal frameworks and the promotion of responsible and sustainable aquaculture practices. The expected outcome was that the capacities of competent authorities, farmers and other stakeholders to support responsible aquaculture production and reduce biosecurity shocks would be enhanced. -
