Dear Friends and Colleagues:=20
The International Institute of Fisheries Economics and Trade (IIFET) has issued its first call for abstracts for our next biennial conference, IIFET Japan 2004: What are Responsible Fisheries? Please visit http://oregonstate.edu/Dept/IIFET/Japan/Japancall.html <http://oregonstate.edu/Dept/IIFET/Japan/Japancall.html> , or contact iifet@oregonstate.edu with your mailing address for a printed copy.
Conference topics on a wide variety of seafood markets, fishery management, and aquaculture-related issues will attract the world's foremost fisheries economists from academia, industry, government management agencies, and international agencies. Seafood processing, marketing, and consumption issues, medical and ornamental substances from the sea, and international seafood trade issues will be covered, as well as policy issues including capacity reduction, fishery management by cooperatives, ecosystems approaches to management, and bio-economic models.
The conference will be held at the Tokyo University of Fisheries, July 26-29, 2004. Additional options will include a pre-conference professional tour July 21-23 visiting fishery management/marketing cooperatives, and July 24 visiting Tsukiji market and other links in the Japanese seafood market chain in Tokyo, plus a post-conference symposium.
Please consider submitting an abstract or joining us as an audience member. Anyone with an interest in the economics of fisheries is welcome to participate.
