Café des Idées

Our seafood consumption and societal choices impact increasingly marine ecosystems and the way we manage and use their resources. Our purchasing decisions might inadvertently support illegal fishing or human rights violations in fisheries, as well as overfishing while wasting large quantities of fish. The presentations will focus on how our decisions as consumers of seafood can steer society toward living in better harmony with nature, or to environmental catastrophe, and how scientific methods and novel monitoring tools can improve the sustainable management and conservation of fish resources.
