Gibba, the permanent sectary at the Ministry of Fisheries, Water Resources and National Assembly Matters (MoFWR-NAMs), pointed out that the aim and objective of the project was to address the critical issues of climate change which are in line with the fisheries policy and development strategies, and to support the policies and development strategies of other sectors such as environment, gender, trade among stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p>P.S. Gibba, who doubles as the chairperson of the steering committee, said at the end of the project, national capacities would be strengthened to mainstream climate change adaptation and gender equality in sectoral policies and development strategies. Increase resilience and adaptive capacities of enterprise and communities along the coastal fisheries value chain among other things.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wish to draw your attention to the gender dimension of the project because this is something I like to hail about the project,\u201d P S Gibba said.<\/p>\n<p>According to Gibba, the fisheries sector is in demographic structure with significant gender roles with supply value chains. He said women dominate the fisheries sector in occupying the post-harvest fisheries segment, involving various small scale enterprises from fish landing, processing ,marketing and providing consumers with fish of quality and -9++<\/p>\n<p>Safety standard for consumption. He observed that the project is very gender inclusive and empowering to both men and women in the post-harvest fisheries sector.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c As climate change and its devastating effects are not going away anytime soon I have no doubt that the lessons gathered from this meeting will contribute immensely in the approach of climate change adaptation in the future agenda,\u201d the chairman told committee members.<\/p>\n<p>Other institutions who participated at the meeting were the Ministry of Environment, Parks and While life, Ministry of Trade Industry and Employment, National Environment Agency, Food Safety Quality Authority among others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
