Objective
The
objective of this activity is (1) to train the participants to the project
to methodologies used in the program
(2) to transfer the methods developed during the project to some
actors (public agencies and regional bodies).
One
aspect of the training is to teach the very actors of aquaculture
management at provincial level with practical work on a real case study.
It is intended to make them grasp the relevance of proper data collection,
analysis and exchange in order to foster practical answers to farmers’
difficulties.
Methods
 |
Training
of Vietnamese participants will be effective all along the project and
will be organized both in French institutes and in Asia :
|
 |
short
training periods of 4 to 6 weeks will be held in the French bodies
taking part in the project (ecology at Université de Toulouse,
environment at IRD and Crema, data analysis and treatment in
Ifremer, economics in CEDEM);.
|
|
long-term
training at AIT Bangkok : environment, remote sensing and GIS.
|
|
“Hands-on”
workshop at mid-project
|
Fisheries
representatives of provinces and local actors will be invited to join
the projects participants in a real case study, the agenda of which
might be as follows :
|
2
or 3 day field work in the Nha Trang vicinity, with water and farm
sampling,
|
|
at
ION, 3 days’ workshop with the following tasks :
|
 |
simplified
environmental data analysis and computation of ecological
indicators,
|
|
on
GIS, edition of case study maps, capture of field work data,
qualification of land cover status of each sampled area,
|
|
analysis
of farm technical data, critical discussion on the actual
efficiency of sampled farms and their potential sustainability,
|
|
suggestions
for modifications in techniques, farm positioning, scenarios on
GIS |
|
Organization
of initial and final seminars with all the participants, a selection
of fisheries officers and possibly other decision makers to inform
about (1) project relevance (2) outputs.
|
|
Analysis
of the possibility of sustaining the project by increasing links
between ION and provincial fisheries through the promotion of a
network between the actors.
|
Discussions
will be held during and after the workshop about the viability of a
network between the provinces. Under the supervision of ION, the network
will aim at strengthening the links between aquaculture actors and
disseminating project’s guidelines and tools in every day’s life of
provincial fisheries services.
