This video by Tipparat Pongthanapanich, FAO, provides an overview of the development of National Innovation and Investment Plans (NIIPs) and the regional Aquaculture Transformation Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning System (ATMS).

NIIPs aim to guide each country's strategic priorities for innovation and investment in aquaculture through 2030, aligned with the regional transformation vision. ATMS will support regional progress tracking and knowledge sharing.

An FAO-led technical cooperation project project is supporting the pilot development of NIIPs and ATMS in four countries - India, Thailand, Viet Nam, and the Philippines - with a view to wider regional application. Key components include strategic visioning, policy alignment, project formulation, and robust monitoring systems to drive inclusive, sustainable aquaculture development.
