This is how some members of DFAS spent their holiday last Monday. It was an amazing sight at a coastal community near Accra, where oyster fishing is a major livelihood option. Development Action Association (DAA), USAID/GHANA Sustainable Fisheries Management Project (SFMP) and the Department of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences (DFAS) interacted with women who are actively involved in the oyster business, harvesting the West African mangrove oyster from oyster beds in the Sakoma lagoon. The visit was an eye opener to many opportunities for research and industry.
