PROVISIONAL PROGRAMME | ForoACUI XXIV 

Next Thursday and Friday, 6 and 7 October, the 24th Forum on Marine Resources and Aquaculture of the Galician Rías will be held at the Municipal Auditorium of O Grove.

This forum is an annual meeting created in 1998 as a reference space to communicate the current situation and future prospects of fishing, shellfishing and aquaculture in Galicia. Its main goals are training, outreach and, above all, interaction between researchers, the business sector and public administration.

The first day will open with an inaugural lecture and two working sessions during the morning: one on the history and projects of the Centre for Marine Research (CIMA), and another on shellfishing and small-scale fishing, with the participation of Laura García Peteiro, researcher at IIM-CSIC.

The second day will focus on “Threats and challenges for the aquaculture of the future”, with contributions from social representatives and scientific experts offering a multidisciplinary perspective. Among them will be IIM-CSIC Research Professor Ángel F. González González.

Other professionals from the sector and scientists from IMEDEA-UiB-CSIC and IEO-CSIC will also take part.

The event will close with the “17th Award for Best Communications”. Interested participants may submit their work as a poster or audiovisual communication.
