Description

We will be presenting a poster on the theme of Equity as observed in the Republic of Burundi based on the SDG's 1: No Poverty 4: Quality Education and 14: Life Below Water. We will draw connections between all 3 SDG's using the Lates Angustifrons species found in Burundi's Tanganyika Lake. The connection is that extinction of the Lates angustifrons hurts the local economy because many fishermen rely on the fish formoney. When people aren’t making money, the economy shuts down, a country goes into poverty, and no one can access education.
