The Blue Growth Initiative aims to support more productive, responsible and sustainable fisheries and aquaculture sectors by improving the governance and management of aquatic ecosystems, conserving biodiversity and habitats, and empowering communities. As part of this initiative, countries from the Eastern Africa Sub-Region met to agree on a strategy for the development of fisheries and aquaculture in the region. The strategy's over-arching development objectives include governance and management of fishery resources and aquatic ecosystems, trade and marketing of fish and fisheries products, aquatic biodiversity and information and knowledge sharing.
