The fishery programme consists of laboratory assistance, extension and supply of inputs for small-scale fishermen and women.
Assistance in laboratory work includes fish stock assessment and a general limnological survey.
The extension and input supply programme has two components:
extension and training (development of fishing gear and methods; development and creation of appropriate fish processing techniques; development of fish marketing infrastructure; intensification of fish conservation education and enforcement of fisheries regulations)
input supply and training (boatbuilding, net-making, engine repair; fish wholesale)
The primary health care programme has three objectives:
to establish a planning, monitoring and evaluation system for both the health management team and the health staff at the centre
to ensure that a primary programme is implemented based on community diagnosis and in which the people of the community are fully involved.
to initiate inter-sectoral co-operation, leading to integrated community development.
