Proposed GEF-8 Project for Sustainable and Climate Resilient Fisheries in Coastal Mozambique (11/20/2023)

This document is a Project Identification Form (PIF) dated 11/20/2023 for a proposed GEF-8 project in Mozambique. The project aims to increase the sustainability and climate resilience of fishery value chains in five coastal provinces. Key activities include upscaling and promoting climate-resilient technologies and practices within the fishery sector, supporting the restoration of degraded coastal ecosystems (such as mangroves and wetlands) that are vital for fisheries and coastal protection, and fostering the diversification of green alternative livelihoods for coastal communities to reduce pressure on vulnerable ecosystems and enhance economic resilience. The project is a proposal under the GEGEF-8 programming strategy and does not represent a regulation or statute with specific compliance deadlines, but rather outlines a planned development intervention.
