Asia–Africa BlueTech Superhighway: Leveraging South–South collaboration to deliver a triple win for nature, people and climate - Bangladesh (Swahili- Kenya)

Abstract

Asia–Africa BlueTech Superhighway (AABS) will help Bangladesh address its fisheries and aquaculture challenges by leveraging South–South collaboration to improve sustainability, resilience and prosperity in coastal communities. Through evidence-based models and partnerships, AABS will enhance the adaptive capacities of small-scale fish workers and farmers, mitigating the effects of climate change and increasing the sustainability of fish production. By focusing on Bangladesh’s vulnerable coastal regions, the initiative will not only support the government’s goals but also ensure that the livelihoods of these communities are more secure and equitable.
