Chamber of Aquaculture
The Ghana Chamber of Aquaculture (frequently just Chamber of Aquaculture) is a Ghanaian professional association focused on the promotion and dissemination of information about Aquaculture in Ghana.[1][2] The organization is a local member of the sustainable aquaculture advocacy program from the World Economic Forum called the Blue Food Partnership.[3] The organization advocates for change in policy, in part because of the National Aquaculture plan advanced by the national government.[4] The organization runs an awards ceremony for organizations involved in aquaculture in Ghana.[5]
After a controlled spill in the Volta River in 2023, the organization worked with the Volta River Authority to improve farming practices to prevent damage and fish release during extreme events.[6][7]
