WHAT IS HAPPENING IN LATIN AMERICA?

What is happening with our organisation and Latin America?

Our program started in 2013 with our first Aquaculture Learning Centre and lessons have been learned and we are building our new strategy which is based on creating a Coastal and Estuary Ecosystem  

This includes important food security activities based on bi-valve aquaculture.

We have now started a project sponsored by the Australian Government which aims to create a long term sustainable Oyster industry in Tamaulipas. The plan involves bringing two suitable Mexicans (two educational experts assigned by Universidad Tecnologica del Mar de Tamaulipas - UTMarT) to Australia for specific training and then having one Australian expert visit Mexico. From the local knowledge and the imported expertise, the project will culminate with workshops and other essential meetings adding to a strategic plan which is a blueprint for similar activities in other seafood products both in Mexico and potentially in other Latin American countries.
