Aquaculture Academy launch event 2/2

On Friday 07/05/2021 we celebrated the official opening of the Aquaculture Academy, the first professional & practical training platform for aquaculture in Eastern Africa.
With over 230 digital attendees, the grand finale of the Best Farmer Competition, and the presence of H.E. the Ambassador Maarten Brouwer, the scene was very festive despite the Covid19 restrictions.
"Key to education is ensuring that gained knowledge provides opportunities for life. The Aquaculture Academy enables young people to either start their own business or work for established farms. By working together with the local knowledge institutes, capacity building is supported and long-lasting impact is achieved. After all, 'To invest in youth is to invest in the future of aquaculture'." - Maarten Brouwer (Ambassador of the Netherlands to Kenya, Somalia, & Seychelles)
