◆ A Message from JICA Hokuriku: Learning Sustainable Fisheries in Noto

From this August to September, JICA Hokuriku hosted a “Blue Economy” KCCP course for 13 government officials from Indonesia. Centered on Japan’s Satoyama and Satoumi approach, the program showcased how harmony between human beings and nature supports sustainable livelihoods in costal areas. Participants explored seafood markets, oyster farming, and community-led resource management in Ishikawa and Toyama prefecture, gaining insights on balancing marine conservation with coastal economic growth.
