The Governance and Policy Programme supports the institutional and regulatory frameworks that underpin aquaculture development among NACA members. The programme focuses on enhancing governance structures, policy formulation on emerging and strategic issues, and implementation practices to ensure sustainable and effective aquaculture management.
The aim of the programme is to ensure that governance and policy frameworks are responsive to the needs of the aquaculture sector, promote sustainable development, meet the needs of rural communities, and are inclusive of women, youth, the elderly, and economically disadvantaged and marginalised groups.
