Development of the Fisheries Sector in Sao Tome and Principe
Fabricio Paquete, Aderito Borges
The INDC report published by the government in 2015 states, on pages 13-14, that climate change could cause the destruction of around 40% to 50% of the marine corals in the Blue Lagoon area; 25% to 30% of the endemic species that live in the mangroves; 25% to 35% of the mangroves themselves and the migration of 30% to 45% of sea turtles. Combined with the different risks, a reduction in artisanal fishing production of around 50% is expected. Therefore, like agriculture, fisheries deserve special attention when designing interventions to increase resilience in STP.This work aims to mitigate and adapt Sao Tome and Principe's risks to climate change.This book is the result of the experience and appropriation of the treaties and conventions of WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organization) and ARIPO (African Intellectual Property Organization), UNEP (United Nations Environment Programme) aimed at promoting sustainable agriculture with high levels of food security, green and blue tourism in Sao Tome and Principe.
