The World Aquaculture Society has been was founded in 1969 and is active in over 100 countries and boasts over 3000 members. It has a history of running conferences throughout the world for many years and they have been proved extremely beneficial for the aquaculture community as a whole. It is understood by the Principle Investigator that individual sessions devoted solely to aquaculture/fisheries training and education has been rare or non-existent in the past. This conference provides an excellent opportunity to bring education and training into the spotlight. It is envisaged that type of environment will lay the foundations for meaningful engagement other educational and training institutions, government and non government organisations and commercial enterprises.
