The 700 Fisherwomen of Katana

Following devastating flooding, a group of women led by Her Majesty the Mwamikazi came forward with an idea. Many women had lost their spouses, business, and land in the flood, and now needed ways to provide their families. If the fishing cooperative could improve their productivity in catching sambaza (small fish from Lake Kivu), they could train more women, increase their income, and fight against malnutrition. Funding was provided to constructe three fishing canoes for the “Maman Katana” group, launching fishing activities in the bays of Irambi, Kabamba, Kajuchu, and Mwanda.

Led by community leaders in Katana, this project, managed primarily by women, will also provide employment opportunities to local labor consisting of the husbands and children of the beneficiaries. By buying and hiring everything locally, this additional work will bolster financial stability.

This initial phase of project implementation is widely supported by the community, which is committed to investing in the project’s management and sustainability to promote economic growth in Katana. And the community continues to look ahead:
