This book was released on 2024-04-17 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many countries are promoting aquaculture as one of the prime drivers of the rural economy and the employment of women and youth. [Author] However, the industry is criticized for inadequately representing the needs of workers. [Author] Most African countries have shown a willingness to advance industry goals through domestic programme planning and facilitating foreign direct investment. [Author] However, there is a need for coherent strategies for employment governance. [Author] Hence, immediate change is required to modify the governance of aquaculture employment to foster industrial transformation. [Author] The objective of this research is to enhance understanding of the governance of aquaculture employment in ten African countries (Egypt, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Nigeria, Rwanda, Senegal, South Africa, Uganda and Zambia) and to determine their level of compliance with existing employment legislation in those countries. [Author] The ultimate goal is to learn from both positive and negative lessons and propose possible corrective measures for substandard practices in order to improve the public perception of aquaculture. [Author] The study seeks to evaluate existing employment governance in the aquaculture industry and to use the acquired knowledge to inform policymakers and industry leaders on the status of governance in employment.

Download or read book Aquaculture Planning written by Cécile D. Brugère and published by Food & Agriculture Organization of the UN (FAO). This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the dramatic recent growth of aquaculture, the planning of its development has become increasingly important. Proper planning will stimulate and guide the evolution of the sector by providing incentives and safeguards, attracting investment and boosting development. Moreover, it will help to ensure the long-term economic, environmental and social sustainability of the sector, and its ultimate contribution to economic growth and poverty alleviation. This paper provides practical guidance to aquaculture policy-makers and implementers on policy formulation and processes. It starts by reviewing governance concepts and international policy agendas relevant to aquaculture development and proceeds by defining "policy," "strategy" and "plan" while explaining common planning terminology. The paper proposes practical steps for improving policy formulation processes. These include: recognizing a timely opportunity for change; ensuring coordination and communication among stakeholders; adopting a participatory approach; learning lessons from elsewhere; and accepting that conflicts may arise and lead to hard choices. It highlights means for implementing aquaculture policies, notes the benefits of an ecosystem approach and proposes a range of instruments which, if implemented at various levels, will help progress towards the development goals for the sector. However, the successful implementation of aquaculture policies depends on overcoming challenges related to weak human capacity, institutions and monitoring systems and to inadequate financial resources. Therefore, the paper also suggests the means to do so. Central to successful planning in the aquaculture sector are coherence in the planning process and an emphasis on interdisciplinarity beyond sectoral remit through institutional collaboration, human capacity development and participation. It is also necessary to embed the chosen approaches and instruments in the principles of good governance. Together, these key elements will ensure the soundness and effectiveness of aquaculture development policies and the positive contribution of the sector.

Download or read book Aquaculture Development written by T. V. R. Pillay and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1994-10-25 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its origins as a restricted and globally insignificant small-scale activity, aquaculture has developed rapidly since the 1960s to become an important growth industry. Aquaculture has confronted many of the developmental problems that an emerging industry would expect to encounter. It has also, in this relatively short period of time, faced many situations that are common to more highly developed and entrenched industries. These have included sector competition, over-production, trade restrictions, over-capitalization, bankruptcies, concern for environmental degradation and the influence of politics at both the national and international level. Aquaculture Development: Progress and Prospects seeks to provide aquaculturalists, policy-makers, administrators and scientists with a critical appraisal of the development and experiences of the industry to guide and assist in the formulation and implementation of plans and strategies for the future.
