Abstract

After the Second World War, an ambitious fish farming project was set up in the Congo by the Belgian colonial government on the basis of scientific reports indicating the state of fish resources. The aim was to feed the indigenous population, especially in rural areas considered to be the poorest, and to make economic production profitable, which could contribute to the well-being of the Congolese workers. By placing this project in the long history of sustainability, this article presents the main economic and socio-environmental issues regarding food and the use of fish resources that drove this project, as well as the measures put in place by the authorities associated with the experts to respond to them. The last part provides and discusses arguments that allow for the evaluation of the extent to which the fish farming project met the conditions of interconnected economic, social and environmental sustainability, as defined by the concept of sustainable development. Na de Tweede Wereldoorlog ontwikkelde de Belgische koloniale overheid in Congo een ambitieus viskweekproject op basis van wetenschappelijke rapporten over het welzijn van de visbestanden. Het doel was de lokale bevolking van met name de arme plattelandsgebieden te voeden, de economie rendabel te maken en het welzijn van de Congolese arbeiders te verhogen. Door dit project in de lange geschiedenis van duurzaamheid te plaatsen, presenteert dit artikel de belangrijkste economische, sociale en ecologische problemen die aan de basis van dit project lagen en de maatregelen die experts en autoriteiten hiervoor voorstelden en namen. In de laatste paragraaf wordt beoordeeld in welke mate het viskweekproject voldeed aan het ideaal van duurzame ontwikkeling, waarbinnen economische, sociale en ecologische dimensies van duurzaamheid als onderling samenhangend worden gedefinieerd.
比属刚果的养鱼业
第二次世界大战后,比利时殖民政府根据有关鱼类资源状况的科学报告,在刚果建立了一个雄心勃勃的鱼类养殖项目。其目的是养活土著居民,特别是被认为是最贫穷的农村地区的土著居民,并使经济生产有利可图,从而有助于刚果工人的福利。通过将该项目置于可持续发展的悠久历史中,本文介绍了推动该项目的食品和鱼类资源利用方面的主要经济和社会环境问题,以及与专家相关的当局为应对这些问题而采取的措施。最后一部分提供并讨论了对养鱼项目在多大程度上符合可持续发展概念所定义的相互关联的经济、社会和环境可持续性条件的评估。比利时koloniale在刚果(金)进行了雄心勃勃的viskweek项目,由van wetenschappelijke记者主持。这个地方被称为“武装高地”,被称为“民主高地”,被称为“民主高地”,被称为“经济高地”,被称为“民主高地”,被称为“民主高地”。门洞工程在大范围内由大范围的工程技术人员负责,在大范围内由大范围的工程技术人员负责,在大范围内由大范围的工程技术人员负责,在大范围内由大范围的工程技术人员负责,在大范围内由大范围的工程技术人员负责。在最后一段中,世界在我们的伙伴关系中得到了发展,“风险周”项目是一个理想的、可持续的、可持续的、经济的、社会的和生态的维度,并对世界的发展进行了定义。
