We have constructed two fish ponds, one in Mukono Ntaawo and the other in St. Kizito High School Namugongo. Being a partner of the school’s Annual Fish Festival, we supply over 1000 fish that are eaten by students, staff, parents, and the community in general.
As a result of including fish in the school’s diet, improved nutrition is achieved. We are therefore contributing to the achievement of Zero Hunger, ending all forms of malnutrition (SDG 2) since it provides proteins, vitamins and minerals.
If you want to maintain a sustainable supply of fish, you have to mine the fish rather than mine them. So putting your money into fishing fleets that are going to exacerbate the problem by overfishing is not a way to preserve the underlying asset.
