Africa-Press – Ethiopia. <\/strong><\/span>The Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) Sustainable Environment Unit Program Manager, Eshete Dejen (PhD) stressed the need to utilizing the untapped fishery sector in the region with a view to alleviating food insecurity problems.<\/p>\n

IGAD socioeconomic situation and capacity need assessment of fisheries in Lake Turkana and Baro-Akobo-Sobat basin study report validation workshop was held in Ethiopia.<\/p>\n

The study identified gaps and recommended intervention to improve the fisheries sectors in Ethiopia and Kenya.<\/p>\n

Speaking on the occasion, Eshete said that scaling up cooperation between IGAD member states is said to be critical to use sustainable water management and fishery activities to alleviate poverty.<\/p>\n

The fishery sector can contribute to accelerated economic growth and development, income generation, nutrition, employment and export earnings and overall food security, he said.<\/p>\n

The focus now should be on increased production and value addition since fish has high domestic market demand, can contribute to improved domestic nutrition, and offer good trade opportunities at the global, regional and the national levels, Eshete added.<\/p>\n
