28 July 2022, Barahona, Dominican Republic - The hands of a child who works cleaning mahi mahi fish on 'El Quemaito' beach in Barahona, southern Dominican Republic.
The fishermen sell part of their merchandise on the beach to the customers who wait for them.
Mahi-mahi is a highly appreciated food fish common to most of the world’s warm and temperate seas. It is also an important catch for local fishers in the Dominican Republic.
FISH4ACP aims to improve this artisanal fishery, while ensuring that economic growth goes hand in hand with environmental sustainability and social inclusiveness.
FISH4CP is an initiative of the African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States (OACPS) implemented by FAO with funding from the European Union (EU) and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Cooperation and Development (BMZ).

A classic view of the boat-filled harbour and foresand showing the bustling activity connected with the fishing industry. The same beach is now thronged with tourists in the summer months soaking up the sunshine. How things have changed!
Still frames from the film ‘Healthy People, Healthy Environment: Integrated Development in Tanzania,’ produced by ECSP. Along the northern coast of Tanzania, a series of innovative development projects are combining conservation efforts with health and livelihood interventions. We meet Rukia, Mahija, and Fidea from the Pangani and Bagamoyo districts who demonstrate how these “population, health, and environment” projects are improving their lives, their environment, and their community. Community members are some of the most important tools of the PHE approach – local villagers become peer educators who can discuss the linkages of conservation and health with their neighbors and help spread the use of interventions such as clean cookstoves, sustainable seaweed farming, and modern reproductive health services.
This was a great stop on my visit to Los Angeles. The Los Angeles Maritime Museum is located in the old San Pedro Municipal Ferry Building at Berth 84 of the Port of Los Angeles. From their site, "The Museum is located at the foot of 6th Street in John S. Gibson Park. The park includes monuments to the US Navy heavy cruiser LOS ANGELES, the Fishing Industry Memorial, the Bloody Thursday Monument, and the American Merchant Marine Veterans Memorial. The Museum is a special facility of the City of Los Angeles, Department of Recreation and Parks." This museum is fantastic and does a great job telling the story of this great working port. Included are great artifacts depicting early maritime commerce, the fishing industry, and models of many US Navy and Commercial ships. My favorite was the shooting model used in the 1972 movie the Poseidon Adventure.
