1st Regional Symposium on Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries

This conference took place in Malta in late November, during which our Game Officer, Massimo Brogna made a joint presentation on the opportunities for sport fishing to provide alternative income sources for small scale fisheries within the Mediterranean and Black Seas. This presentation was in conjunction with Apulla Sportfishing and CIHEAM.

Also present at the meeting were representatives of EFSA Malta, and the attached photograph shows Massimo with Malta Treasurer Catherine Farruggia, Chief Researcher Sandra Agius Darmanin and Chairman Charles Caruana. This was the first opportunity for the reformed Malta section to meet a member of the HQ Executive.
