NEWSCommonwealth Fisheries Programme event in the Commonwealth People's Space
On Sunday 22nd November, the CFP with the help of the Seafood Industry Development Company arranged an event at the People's Space, in the Savannah Park in Port of Spain, Trinidad. The aim of the event was to raise awareness of the book (From Hook to Plate: The State of Marine Fisheries-a Commonwealth Perspective) and the CFP; to share findings of the study tour and case studies with a wider audience, to local fishermen, fishing co-operatives, businesses and other interested parties. Richard Bourne gave a presentation on the Study Tours and Nicholas Watts presented on the Case Studies. The event also had a special guest speaker, Milton Haughton, from the Caribbean Regional Fisheries Mechanism (CRFM) who also authored a chapter in the book. A Question and Answer session allowed guests to engage in a discussion with the speakers. The CFP would like to give a special thanks to the Seafood Industry Development Company for arranging the event.
