| Innovation Title | Public-Private partnership (PPP) model genetically improved farmed tilapia (GIFT) hatchery for scaling of Aquaculture in Timor-Leste |
| Innovation description | Improving access to and the availability of quality seed is a prerequisite to the scaling of aquaculture in Timor-Leste. The first Public Private Partnership (PPP) model hatchery, regulated by a public and private stakeholders' agreement, was established at Leohitu village in the west of the country. This has not only helped in narrowing supply – demand gap for seed but has also demonstrated the role of private sectors in scaling of aquaculture in the country. |
