FISH-FRIENDLY: Policy Innovations for Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture in Africa The Malabo Montpellier Forum provides a platform to facilitate dialogue and exchange among high-level decision-makers on African agriculture, nutrition, and food security and to promote policy innovation. The Forum Co-Chairs are H.E. Hailemariam Dessalegn Boshe, Former Prime Minister of Ethiopia, and H.E. Dr. Assia Bensalah Alaoui, Ambassador at Large to His Majesty King Mohamed VI of Morocco. The Forum meets twice a year, and every meeting is guided by a technical report prepared by members of the Malabo Montpellier Panel. The theme of the Panel's forthcoming report, which will be launched at the virtual meeting of the Malabo Montpellier Forum on January 30, 2025, is "FISH-FRIENDLY: Policy Innovations for Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture in Africa." The report focuses on successful approaches, that is, institutional, policy, and technical innovations and programmatic interventions among African countries to enhance the role of aquatic foods in the transformation of food systems. The meeting of the Forum will be held in three parts: a technical part drawing on the findings and recommendations from the Panel's report, reflections on the outcomes and lessons from the report, and a high-level policy roundtable composed of senior representatives from African governments, academia, development partners, civil society, and the private sector.
