A #Thread 🧵
📣 Small-scale fisheries are vital for food security and livelihoods across the Western Indian Ocean, yet are often overlooked due to fragmented or missing data.
Today, WorldFish's @alextilley and @pthoya co-led the Work Package 1 Mini-Symposium: Advances in Data Science and Digital Transformation.

A good start to our fisheries monitoring system in Zanzibar! This afternoon, we installed the first GPS tracker on MV Answari. The GPS trackers are a crucial component of the Peskas system, allowing us to know where fishers fished, enabling us to make sound management decisions .

Crude and crass CONSUMPTION and primitive ACCUMULATION by elected officials and elites in government in the midst of penury by the majority is a trigger for public anger. Flaunting ILL-GOTTEN public wealth mocks the impoverished. Corruption must be sanctioned without PITY.
