The 2023 Annual Report for Future Fishers outlines the organization’s continued efforts in capacity building, sustainable fishing practices, and community engagement along Trinidad’s northeast coast. Key highlights include the successful training of fishers in Engine Repair and Safety at Sea, surpassing educational targets. The report emphasizes significant improvements in FISHNET. The active participation of fishers in depot talks and our learning more about the issues have led us to develop 2 research on the sector in the area. Furthermore, Future Fishers has expanded its initiatives into value-added fish product development, training 22 persons in smoked and salted fish and providing kilns to producers, aiming to enhance the economic viability of low-value fish species. The organisation also reports on the work of building a cooperative with fishers to strengthen community ties and ensure better market positioning for fishers, supported by grant funding and comprehensive governance frameworks.
