Lesson

Lesson
Integrating the local capacity and existing fishing practices in project design helps in improving the efficacy of project components and approaches. Local fishermen in the Northern Province are not well equipped to take full advantage of large infrastructure such as a fishery harbor. Their boats and gears do not allow for the type of large-scale multiday fishing operation that is to benefit from the harbor. Landing sites and anchorages are better suited to their immediate operation needs.
