Farm Gate

Saving Sierra Leone's fish


Listen Later

In this programme we visit Sierra Leone.  We discuss how this West African country managed to stop Chinese, Russian, Korean and European vessels plundering their fish stocks, how stakeholders built a sustainable fisheries programme, and the challenges for international organisations such as the World Bank.  We also address the controversy over Sierra Leone's new Chinese-funded harbour project.


ffinlo Costain talks to Salieu Sankoh, the co-ordinator of the World Bank-funded West African Regional Fisheries Programme in Sierra Leone, and to Phil Gawne, an advisor to the Program, and a former fisheries minister for Isle of Man Government.

Produced by Farmwel.
