  abstract = {{W}orld per capita fish consumption is expected to increase by 2030 with the exception of {A}frica, due to population growth outpacing supply. {T}his raises food and nutrition security issues owing to the high prevalence of malnutrition in the region 











and the contribution of fish to total animal intake in many {A}frican countries. {T}he annual growth rate of {A}frica's aquaculture production has been the highest worldwide during the last 20 years; however, it represents less than 3% of the world's total 











annual production. {B}rackish and freshwater aquaculture production have greatly increased in {A}frica over the last two decades, while marine aquaculture production has remained low. {T}he latter only represents 5% of the total 2019 production (in tonnes), of which 92% are seaweeds. {M}arine aquaculture production is very unevenly developed in the different {A}frican coastal countries, and {M}auritius, {S}outh {A}frica, and {T}anzania are by far the main producers of finfish, molluscs, and seaweeds, respectively. {T}he objective of this work is to provide an overview of the current situation of marine aquaculture in several sub-{S}aharan {A}frican countries with different socio-economic and environmental contexts, in which this food production system is at different points of development. {T}he farmed species and/or species of interest that are the subject of research, the new initiatives that are being implemented, as well as the challenges and opportunities to develop marine aquaculture sustainably in {S}enegal, {I}vory {C}oast, {N}amibia, {S}outh {A}frica, {M}auritius, {T}anzania, and {K}enya will be presented.},
