The objective is to undertake a scoping study and preliminary value chain (VC) analysis for coastal fisheries in Mozambique’s Sofala Bank Region and produce a costed indictive AWP for reduce fish losses and wastes and adding value in small scale fisheries.
The study will provide an overview and mapping of the coastal/marine fisheries VC and make thought-through proposals on which fisheries WF could focus to best contribute to the objectives of the AABS project and a sustainable Blue Economy, looking at the VCs where the private sector and women play (or can play) a role.
This work will constitute a detailed assessment of various VCs' operations and their impact on sustainable development's leading economic, social, and environmental dimensions. The work seeks evidence-based analytical content rather than a definite performance appraisal.
The study will identify focal areas for engagement through WP3 of the AABS project – Scaling Climate Smart Technologies to Reduce Food Loss and Waste and Add Value to Coastal Fisheries in Mozambique.
