Cross-border fishing and fish trade on Lake Victoria

The views of border fishing communities and their leaders on the challenges and opportunities for improved fisheries management at the international border areas on Lake Victoria are documented. The report is based on discussions with fishing communities and district leaders in the Kenya-Uganda, Kenya-Tanzania and Tanzania-Uganda border areas, carried out from 22 to 29 April and 5 to 12 June 2002. Based on these views, the study presents conclusions and recommendations for discussion by the Lake Victoria Fisheries Organisation Statutory Committees.
