Today, technology like GPS and fish finders is helping fishermen work smarter not harder. These gadgets guide them to safe routes, show where fish are located beneath the waves, and help save time, fuel, and effort. More catch, less struggle, and a safer journey home.

That’s why Mr. Simon Komu dedicated his time to train young fishermen in our community ensuring they don’t get left behind in a fast-advancing world. Through a technical session powered by Faza Youth under the BlueBiz program by TechnoServe, these young fishers learned how to use modern devices that can uplift their livelihoods and protect the ocean they depend on.

“Technology isn’t here to replace tradition it’s here to strengthen it.”

This training is more than learning to push buttons on a device…
It’s about giving hope.
It’s about building independence.
It’s about making sure our youth can provide for their families today while protecting the sea for tomorrow.

Lamu’s future is tied to the ocean and when our young fishermen grow, our community grows too.
