SAFE HARBOURS: PILOT MARITIME SAFETY INNOVATION IN COASTAL NIGERIA
active 1 week, 4 days agoThis project will pilot a community-led maritime safety system in Lagos, Delta and Bayelsa State , Nigeria, where frequent boat accidents endanger lives. It will introduce low-cost innovations—such as solar-powered safety beacons,emergency signal points, and local weather boards—to improve navigation and emergency response for small boat users. In collaboration with boat unions and local authorities, the project will also build community capacity through safety awareness workshops. The outcomes will inform the potential for future scale-up and partnerships focused on reducing maritime risk in under-resourced settings.
