Federation of Fisheries Organizations Uganda (FFOU) developed ABAVUBI Fisher Mobile App. The application allows the fisher folk to keep track, easily and securely collect, store and analyze business and fisheries data. The app also gives the user access to weather forecasts, market information and navigation data. All these aspects are aimed at building stronger fish businesses, improve market access and strengthen the role of the fishing communities in co-management of the water resources.
