local.seafdecaqd.extract | Filipino fishermen and coastal communities have been introduced to an innovative inclusive business model that tackles the environmental problem of discarded fishing nets while providing a source of supplemental income to coastal communities, enabling them to join a global supply chain. The UK- funded program on recycling abandoned or discarded fishing gears into tiles and carpets will expand its activities to more islands in the country. Net-Works is the first inclusive business model of its kind to combine the conservation and livelihood expertise of ZSL and the business know-how of Interface to integrate fishing communities in the Philippines into the global carpet company’s supply chain as a source of recycled nylon. | en |
