At the risk of being precocious, there appears to be a renaissance in aquaculture develop-ment in the Africa Region. After a noteworthy slump in the 1990s, we appear to be approaching the new millennium with a positive outlook for the region’s aquaculturists and would-be aquaculturists. Much of the renewed interest can be attributed to FAO’s Special Programme for Food Security (SPFS) which has identified aquaculture as an important activity in its diversification compo-nent. The SPFS places a strong emphasis on improved use of Africa’s important water resources. We have long known that good water managers make good fish farmers, so aquaculture is a natural fit within SPFS. Special Programme activities include aquaculture in Cameroon, the Niger, Mali, United Republic of Tanzania and Zambia, to name a few.
