          Asian Fisheries Society celebrates World Fisheries Day
          22 Nov, 2023

          The Asian Fisheries Society celebrates World Fisheries Day on November 21. The diversity of fisheries, people and types of activity involved with fishing, particularly small-scale fishing, are amazing throughout the Indo-Pacific and Asian region.

          This combined with central location of the major hotspot of marine biodiversity, the Coral Triangle, in the Asian region, highlights the importance of fisheries and conservation. It also highlights the significant challenges that fisheries and conservation managers face for ensuring sustainable fisheries and marine ecosystems into the future.

          These challenges are only met when partnerships are developed between people from different disciplines and organisations and two-way knowledge transfer and is facilitated among researchers, policy makers and managers, fishers, fishing industries and the coastal communities whose livelihoods and food supply are often supported by fisheries.

          The Asian Fisheries Society reflects the diversity of fisheries with members in over 20 countries representing traditional fisheries and aquaculture disciplines, as well as the increasingly important topics of Fish Health, Gender in Aquaculture and Fisheries and the Social Sciences. The society encourages collaborations amongst researchers and the sharing of knowledge for sustainable fisheries and marine ecosystems and sustainable coastal livelihoods. It joins people globally in celebrating World Fisheries Day.
