Wewak, ESP – The FAO-Led EU-STREIT Programme in Papua New Guinea enters into a partnership with the PNG’s National Fisheries Authority to upskill country’s fisheries officers. Under a Letter of Agreement (LoA) signed between Managing Director of National Fisheries Authority (NFA) Mr John Kasu and the FAO Country Head of Office, Mr Ken Shimizu, EU-STREIT PNG offers its support to upscale the knowledge and skills of 14 government fisheries officers through a 10-week training at the National Fisheries College (NFC) in Kavieng. Ten of these officers have already commenced Certificate One Aquaculture training course which is on-going, while four will attend the Certificate Two Small Fishing Operations (SFO) training course to start in August 2021. The participants are from 10 districts of East and West Sepik provinces. The major outputs of this collaboration are to build the capacity of officers in fisheries operations and aquaculture, enabling them to design and conduct training workshops and facilitate capacity building for fishery and aquaculture entrepreneurs. The initiative also equips the officers with understanding and skills to adopt appropriate extension tools, methods and techniques to conduct advisory and extension services to target beneficiaries. The attendees also will receive training on how to sustain and enhance their technical capacity through continuous self-learning, knowledge resources available online and peer-to-peer knowledge transfer.
