The Omali Vida Nón project trains fishermen and fish traders in small business planning and management

It is with great pride that after 5 weeks, we come to the end of the 100-hour training in Business Planning and Management given to fishermen, fish traders and their children by the #OmaliVidaNón project.

Fifty-six trainees successfully completed this training, with 55 submitting a total of 39 small business proposals, of which 32 were individual proposals and 7 were group proposals.

A total of 16 proposals were approved to be supported by the #OmaliVidaNón project, which will support their implementation and monitor their development, contributing to the diversification of the livelihoods of fishing communities. Criteria such as environmental sustainability, technical and financial viability, social impact, among others, were used by the 9-member multi-sectoral jury team to select the winning proposals.

Congratulations to all the trainees and a big thank you to all the members of the jury for making themselves available to evaluate all the proposals presented!
