BENEFIT
Definition
- The Benguela Environment Fisheries Interaction and Training (BENEFIT) Programme is a regional partnership between Namibia, Angola and South Africa focused on fisheries and the marine resources of the Benguela Current ecosystem off southwest Africa. BENEFIT was originally conceived in 1995, adopted by the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC) as a project in June 1996, and formally inaugrated in April 1997. The overall goal of BENEFIT is to promote the sustainable utilisation of the living resources of the Benguela Current Ecosystem. As outlined in the 1997 Science Plan, this goal is to be achieved through an active science and technology programme integrated with capacity development within the Benguela region.
