Vulnerability to Viability Global Partnership
Supporting Small-Scale Fisheries in their Transition from Vulnerability to Viability
WHO WE ARE
V2V is a transdisciplinary global partnership and knowledge network with members from Africa, Asia, Canada, and internationally. We aim to support small-scale fishers in transitioning from vulnerability to viability.
WHERE WE WORK
The V2V partnership brings people and organizations together across physical, cultural, and disciplinary boundaries through a shared interest in addressing global change impacts on small-scale fisheries. We are conducting transdisciplinary, community-engaged research in six Asian countries - Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, and Thailand - and six African countries - Ghana, Malawi, Nigeria, Senegal, South Africa, and Tanzania.
WHAT WE DO
The V2V Global Partnership aims to identify the diverse factors and conditions contributing to the ‘vulnerability’ of SSF and engage collaboratively with small-scale fishing communities and other key NGOs, government, and university partners to enhance SSF viability.
