| dc.description.abstract | Solar-powered freezers bring cold storage to remote rural communities, which enables preservation of fish catches (and other foods). This can strengthen fisheries livelihoods by allowing fish to be stockpiled until a good time to sell. It can also increase people’s resilience by providing opportunity to store fish to consume in times of need. WorldFish and the West ‘Are’Are Rokotanikeni Women’s Association piloted the installation and use of 12 solar-powered freezers from 2016 to 2020. | en_US |
