Notice Title

CEFAS21-105 ITT OCPP Future aquaculture systems in Bangladesh (OHA)

Notice Description

Through addressing sustainable seafood challenges, the OCPP hopes to ensure seafood produced and distributed in ways which support healthy ecosystems, do not overexploit marine stocks, provide sustainable inclusive and equitable livelihoods and enhance resilience to climate and socioeconomic shocks.
