As the world has been growing rapidly with the fast increase in population, economic competition has intensified.  This is also the case with fisheries industry.  More and more people are using fishery resources until the use of nature does not balance with its production and fish stocks and other fishery resources are under immense pressure. Under the circumstances, building awareness and capacity among the younger generation and future leaders in the areas of sustainable fisheries resources management becomes very critical and necessary.

The youth of today are going to be the manpower of the future. University students, who will soon finish their studies in the very near future, are especially important since they  have some influence in shaping the future of the country and its people.
