商品描述

This edited book presents the emerging sustainable innovations in all areas of aquaculture in Africa with a view to create an opportunity whereby scientific outputs and recommendations can be endorsed for improved aquaculture outputs towards poverty alleviation and food security on the continent.

Food insecurity and poverty are some of the challenges faced on the African continent. These challenges are further exacerbated by the growing human population and the impacts of climate change. Today, aquaculture has become one of the fastest food producing sectors in the world, with the potential to contribute significantly to food security and poverty alleviation in developing countries. In Africa, aquaculture is at an infant stage, however, many African countries have recognized the potential roles of aquaculture in food security, poverty alleviation and conservation of aquatic resources through their commitment to achieve the United Nation Sustainable Development Goals.

The book reviews and synthesize research work from these thematic areas across Africa and provide a unique perspective on the emerging aquaculture innovations and illustrate how aquaculture practices could be feasible and cost effective while promoting social and environmental sustainability. The book also draws from global discussions on sustainable aquaculture practices and provides recommendations on what is feasible for Africa. This book is a great tool for the university students, scholars, aquaculture farmers, investors, and policymakers to understand the scientific based sustainable aquaculture innovations from an African perspective.

This book is focused on SDG 2 and SDG 14.

這本編輯過的書介紹了非洲水產養殖領域中新興的可持續創新,旨在為改善非洲大陸的水產養殖產出,減輕貧困和確保食品安全創造機會,並得到科學研究成果和建議的支持。

食品不安全和貧困是非洲大陸面臨的挑戰之一。這些挑戰受到人口增長和氣候變化的影響而進一步惡化。如今,水產養殖已成為全球增長最快的食品生產部門之一,有潛力在發展中國家對食品安全和貧困減輕方面做出重大貢獻。在非洲,水產養殖處於初級階段,然而,許多非洲國家已經認識到水產養殖在食品安全、貧困減輕和水生資源保護方面的潛力,並致力於實現聯合國可持續發展目標。

這本書回顧並綜合了非洲各地的研究工作,提供了對新興水產養殖創新的獨特觀點,並說明了如何在促進社會和環境可持續性的同時,水產養殖實踐可以成為可行且具有成本效益的方式。該書還借鑒了全球關於可持續水產養殖實踐的討論,並提出了對非洲可行性的建議。這本書對於大學生、學者、水產養殖農民、投資者和政策制定者來說,是了解非洲視角下基於科學的可持續水產養殖創新的重要工具。

本書聚焦於可持續發展目標2和目標14。
