Abstract

A panel of experts in marine fisheries, shipping and port sectors presented their views at a stakeholder workshop held at ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute. The workshop featured two panel discussions on key topics: Safety and Sustainability in Fisheries and Aquaculture, and the Impacts and Challenges of the Port and Shipping sector. According to experts, traditional fishermen can read the subtle signs of the sea and sky, enabling them to predict climate patterns and fish availability. Their techniques, passed down through generations, and their collective participation would be the best way to develop effective and sustainable solutions for the sector's challenges in the face of the climate crisis.
