The Power to the Fishers project, funded by the European Union, organized a study tour to the Central and Western Fishmongers Improvement Association (CEWEFIA) compliance facility. This was organized for 75 lead fishmongers, all being women, in the project’s beneficiary communities. The learning tour was to enhance the knowledge of the women on improved smoking technologies, fish handling and hygienic practices, and appropriate packaging. With their positions as lead fishmongers, the women will serve as agents of change towards the adoption of improved smoking technologies and appropriate fish handling practices
