Study of the Contribution of Fish Marketing to Livelihoods in the Countries of the Chad Basin: Cameroon, Chad, Central African Republic (CAR), Niger and Nigeria.

 

Objective:         To contribute towards a better understanding of the role of fish-marketing in livelihoods in each of the countries of the Chad Basin, including Cameroon, Chad, CAR, Niger and Nigeria, and to make available this new knowledge as a basis from which to guide the policy-formation process and the identification of development interventions relevant to promoting a positive relationship between markets and livelihoods in the future. 

Duration:             12 months, approved in September 2002

Beneficiaries: NCU and stakeholders of the fish marketing in the Chad Basin

Budget:             US$ 15.890 (50% transferred to RCA)

What aspect of policy dialogue the project sets out to inform: Through investigating the relationships between the different stakeholders groups and by identifying and reviewing the options for the formulation of new development narratives within government policy, which will promote an improved contribution of fish-marketing to sustainable livelihoods in the Chad Basin in the future.
