Fellows' research seminars

GRÓ-FTP is happy to announce the fellows’ research seminars, where our fellows present the results of their research project, which they have been working on during the six-month training programme this year.

Every year the programme culminates in a 12 week research project, when fellows work closely with expert supervisors on a particular fisheries related problem which they are faced with in their work back at home.

The seminars are a great opportunity to learn about the diverse challenges confronted by developing countries as they seek to conserve and sustainably use the marine and inland fisheries resources.

Schedule:

  • Fisheries Policy and Management fellows, hosted by the University of Akureyri (UNAK), are presenting in the first seminar, which takes place at University of Akureyri, Norðurslóð 2 (Room M101), Monday May 6th / from 08:20 to 15:00.
