This initiative aims to

(A) increase stakeholder awareness and knowledge of giant clam farming and market systems to inform livelihoods, food security, conservation management and policy decision making; (B) increase community access to high-quality and diverse giant clam seedlings to support the establishment of climate-sensitive community-based clam farms; and (C) strengthen climate-smart technical skills, networking and business skills of community members, especially women gleaners, to achieve sustainable aquaculture livelihoods, and an improved local network of giant clam farmers.
