WSFC : Issues and Solutions

The World Small-Scale Fisheries Congress (WSFC) is a scientific meeting that aims to address issues concerning small-scale fisheries around the world. Researchers, practitioners, policy makers, fishers, industries, community members, and other interested persons are invited to participate at the conference to discuss key issues and offer local and global solutions.

The congress will consist of panel presentations, speed and poster presentations and field excursions. It will be held in Thailand on October 18-22, 2010. The WSFC will overlap with the fifth Coastal Zone Asia-Pacific Conference (CZAP2010), a biennial conference on coastal related issues for the Asia-Pacific region.

WSFC/CZAP Conference will be held at Montien Riverside Hotel, Bangkok, Thailand.
