Signing of Grant Agreement with Senegal: Contributing to the improved safety and increased value of Senegalese fishery products through the construction of the National Analysis Laboratory
Under this project, the National Analysis Laboratory will be constructed and the necessary testing equipment will be supplied in order to strengthen the inspection system for fishery products in Senegal. This will contribute to the improved safety and increased value of Senegalese fishery products, and will consequently promote and stabilize exports, therefore also contributing to the achievement of SDGs Goals 8 (Decent work and economic growth) and 14 (Life below water). This project will also contribute significantly to the TICAD8 mission “Realizing a resilient and sustainable society that safeguards people’s lives”, which was presented at the end of August this year.

Details for the project are provided below.
