The 2025 Symposium is jointly convened by Queen's University Belfast and AFBI, and presents the latest science on fish conservation and fisheries management in the first ever joint symposium with the Institute of Fisheries Management.
The conference aims to bring together scientists from a broad range of disciplines to explore ways of integrating our research and strengthening relationships with stakeholders and policymakers to improve the effectiveness of fisheries management and fish conservation.
In recent years there have been rapid technology driven advances across diverse disciplines, and in parallel there have been escalating pressures on fish and fisheries. To address these changes, this Symposium aims to be a platform for a comprehensive evaluation of the symbiotic relationship between science and management, and will encompass a wide spectrum of disciplines, ranging from molecular biology to economics and social sciences.
The Symposium is geared towards spotlighting technical innovations, unveiling new understandings, and showcasing practical applications. It aims to offer a critical assessment of how science and management collaborate effectively, aligning with the overarching goal of furthering the cause of fish conservation and sustainable management.
