Indian Ocean restoration and livelihoods: a growing opportunity for coastal communities

The Blue News reports a US$500 million, 10-year Aga Khan Foundation programme for Indian Ocean restoration and livelihoods. It covers coastal restoration, regenerative agriculture, sustainable fisheries, clean energy and enterprise development, the same themes coastal communities like Jomvu Kuu work on. This is another organisation's programme, not a BOH project.
