Large-scale study: Congolese fishermen report decline in fish stocks on Lake Tanganyika

(KU Leuven) Fishermen working on Lake Tanganyika in eastern Congo experience a lack of safety and want better enforcement of existing regulations. They also report a decline in the lake's fish stocks. These are some of the findings of a large international study led by KU Leuven (Belgium) based on 1018 interviews with stakeholders in the area. The study was published in theJournal of Great Lakes Research.
