Exploring future trends for fisheries, the FTP fellows asked questions like “what is likely to change and what will probably continue”, during the fourth week of the Six month training programme.

Warm wishes for a happy holiday season from the FTP team

It is with great pleasure to announce that a fellow from 2019, Olanrewaju Femi Olagunju, has successfully completed his doctoral studies at the University of Iceland.

How Suðurnesjamenn, “The Southerners”, harness their inhospitable land and sea, seeking a balance between dare and awe, to provide for themselves and build up prosperous operations, is an inspiring story that our fellows set out to explore in a field trip Wednesday December 4th.

After settling in the programme and adjusting to winter conditions in Iceland, the newly arrived 2024-25 cohort of fellows spent their second week drawing up a general outline of the status of world fisheries and aquaculture.

Over the coming days most of the fellows, invited for this year’s Six-month training, will arrive in Iceland.
