Partnership for Aquaculture Development in Timor-Leste (PADTL): Development of sustainable aquaculture in Timor-Leste. Bayan Lepas, Malaysia: WorldFish (WF).https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12348/3771In 2012, the National Directorate of Fisheries and Aquaculture (NDFA), Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries (MAF) Timor-Leste developed the National Aquaculture Development Strategy (NADS) 2012-2030 with technical assistance from WorldFish. The New Zealand Aid Programme funded a 5-year project to support development activities identified within the NADS. The National Directorate of Aquaculture (NDA) takes a pivotal role in implementing the project, with WorldFish providing technology and training/mentoring support. The project, following a holistic approach, aims to greatly increase the amount of fish produced by aquaculture in Timor-Leste. Increasing supply will reduce the price of fish, making it more affordable for rural and urban poor.PDFCC-BY-NC-ND-4.0geneticFishPoster
