The marine and fisheries sector supports livelihoods in communities around the world. Helping these industries cope with climate change impacts, while also reducing their own effect on climate change, requires outreach to fishing operations of all sizes ranging from community-based fishing families to large commercial fishing fleets. Transferring technology in the fisheries sector both reduces vulnerability to climate change risks while increasing food security and enhancing the overall health and well-being of fishing communities. Through the CTCN network you can access a range of climate adaptation technologies ranging from open water to closed-loop indoor and shoreline aquaculture fish farming practices. Below you will find related publications, partners, CTCN technical assistance, technologies and other information for exploring this topic further.
