FRP Raises Awareness of West Africa’s Depleting Fish Stocks

FRP addresses the United Nations International Seabed Authority again, this time focusing on the depleting fish stocks of West Africa, offering realistic, sustainable solutions.

“…With its Great African Food Reef that will stretch from Senegal all the way to Angola, the Fish Reef Project will be a major actor in the development of Africa’s Blue Tech sector and Blue Economy.

The new reefs are an ideal start for Africa as they will employ hundreds of people to create the reefs, to deploy them, and to monitor them and the reefs themselves will provide a critical new, long-term, sustainable form of food security, food sovereignty and poverty reduction, and they are an ideal entry-level blue technology project…”
