A recent case study in western Kenya offers valuable insights into persistent gaps, and what it will take to close them. By examining how dairy farmers understand, perceive, and value climate mitigation strategies, the research sheds light on the social foundations of climate-smart agriculture and why technical solutions alone are not enough.
When it comes to building healthier communities, healthy habits need to take root – and behavior change is the fuel needed to drive this agenda.
WorldFish implemented the CGIAR Scaling for Impact (S4I) program in Bayelsa State, Nigeria, as a broader initiative to boost aquaculture productivity and food security.
Aquaculture is at the forefront of global calls to transform food systems to make them healthier, more sustainable and fairer.
Timor-Leste is eating more fish than ever before. The country’s first national survey on fish consumption shows people now eat an average of 8.7 kilograms per person per year, up from an estimated 6.1 kilograms* in 2011.
In Zanzibar, small-scale fishers are entering the digital era. Previously reliant on delayed reports from handwritten logs, they now benefit from near real-time information processed and displayed on decision dashboards. These tools are reshaping how marine resources are monitored, managed, and conserved.
Anchovy, locally known as dagaa, sits at the heart of Zanzibar’s fisheries, diets and livelihoods. These small fish are rich in essential micronutrients and widely consumed across the archipelago, making them a vital source of affordable nutrition, particularly for low-income households.
Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) is increasingly recognised as an approach that can strengthen the sustainability of aquaculture systems. By combining species from different trophic levels, such as fish, shellfish and seaweed, IMTA makes better use of resources, reduces waste and supports more resilient production systems.
