NEPAD was established in 2001 by Nigeria, South Africa, Algeria, Senegal and Egypt. It’s the implementing agency of the AU that advocates for, facilitates and coordinates the development of NEPAD continent-wide programmes and projects, mobilises resources and engages the global community, regional economic communities and member states in the implementation of these programmes and projects. It has several programmes in place that aim to develop Africa’s growing economy. This is done by empowering Africans through several skills development initiatives and lobbying to governments to implement policies.

Sound Idea produced five documentaries each addressing different aspects of fisheries in Africa. These consisted of a main documentary and four smaller documentaries. Filming took place in several African countries namely: Kenya, Nigeria and several cities in South Africa including Durban, Port Elisabeth, East London and Cape Town, to name a few. Filming was done by Oliver Karstel and Francois Karstel who worked extensively to ensure that every required shot was done in the best way possible. During filming, emphasis was placed on fish markets and different fish vendors to highlight the importance of fisheries in several African economies.
