Advancing Fisheries Management: The Successful Approach of Fisheries Forum

Fisheries Forum has emerged as a successful platform for thorough debates, achieving consensus on key issues while respecting different opinions. This inclusive forum engages stakeholders, statutory agencies, and the public through consultations, meetings, and online discussions. As a model for effective governance beyond legislation, the forum strategizes on future management structures, access and protection, and non-legislative themes. The future of Fisheries Forum envisions a sustainable work plan, enhanced dialogue with the angling community, and broader engagement with interested parties.
