At the forefront of Somalia’s coastal development, the Social and Environmental Development Organization (SEDO) is driving positive change in the fishery sector and ecosystem protection. With a steadfast commitment to sustainability.

SEDO actively promotes sustainable fishing practices by providing local fishermen with essential knowledge and skills through awareness campaigns and training sessions. Recognizing the potential of aquaculture, we support local fish farmers with resources and technical assistance to embrace sustainable methods, ensuring a balanced approach to fishing.

Understanding the delicate balance between a thriving fishery sector and a healthy ecosystem, SEDO spearheads efforts to conserve and restore critical habitats like mangroves and seagrasses. Additionally, community-based resource management programs empower local committees to actively participate in protecting and responsibly utilizing fisheries and coastal areas.

SEDO integrates innovative technologies, such as GPS tracking and data analytics, to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of the fishery sector. We advocate for positive policy changes, engaging with local and national authorities to ensure that regulations align with long-term community and environmental interests.

Recognizing the impact of climate change on coastal communities, SEDO integrates climate resilience into its initiatives. We work towards enhancing the adaptive capacity of fishing communities by promoting climate-smart practices and facilitating their ability to withstand environmental changes.

Collaboration is key to SEDO’s success. Through partnerships with governmental agencies, non-governmental organizations, and international bodies, we create synergies that amplify our impact. Together, we strive for a holistic and comprehensive approach to the sustainable development of Somalia’s fishery sector.

SEDO envisions a future where a flourishing fishery sector coexists with a vibrant coastal ecosystem. Our initiatives aim to leave a legacy of sustainability and resilience for generations to come.
