Small-scale aquaculture and fisheries play a critical role in global food security, livelihoods, and rural development, serving as a vital source of income, nutrition, and employment. The development of tailored training for capacity building and climate resilience ensures that operations can continue to thrive despite shifting environmental conditions. It supports actors along the value chain in minimizing the negative consequences of climate risks, thereby securing food and nutrition security, as well as livelihoods, for future generations. It also helps prevent illegal practices that could harm ecosystems.

Sustainable practices are essential not only for maintaining natural resources and biodiversity but also for increasing production efficiency. Well-designed training concepts translate complex technical information into accessible formats. This enables the standardization of practices across different regions, contributing to improved overall product quality and opening up new market opportunities.
