Through the Fisheries Pilot Programmes in West Africa (WAPP) initiative, Fisheries and Aquaculture Programme supported Ghana in preparing its investment portfolio for submission to the World Bank. Ghana successfully received funding from the World Bank which has enabled the implementation of the investment.
Ghana was one of the six West African states represented in the Fisheries Committee for the Centre-West Gulf of Guinea (FCWC), which was a result of Fisheries and Aquaculture Programme investing in the strengthening of platforms for sub-regional ministers of fisheries. The development of this functional working relationship will facilitate institutional support activities and create a platform for knowledge sharing amongst member states, consequently resulting in the sustainability and prosperity of the fisheries sector in Ghana and the West Africa region.
