ICFAS 2025 to shape the future of fisheries and aquatic sciences

The International Conference for Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences 2025 marks a pivotal moment for the global aquaculture and marine‑science community. Hosted and supported by leading institutions committed to sustainable ocean use, ICFAS 2025 brings together researchers, practitioners, policy‑makers and industry partners under one roof. Attendees can expect an invigorating agenda of keynote speeches, breakout sessions, poster presentations, industry exhibitions and networking opportunities designed to foster cross‑disciplinary collaboration.

The them for the 2025 conference is “Fisheries at the Forefront: Ensuring Food Safety, Securityand Sustainability.” One of its key highlights is its broad thematic focus on the pressing challenges facing fisheries and aquatic ecosystems today: from climate‑driven shifts in stock distribution, through emerging aquaculture technologies, to value‑chain innovations and community resilience. The conference promises rigorous peer‑reviewed research, case studies from around the world, and interactive sessions that probe how science, policy and practice can merge to deliver sustainable outcomes.

For participants, the event offers multiple ways to engage: present your own work, exchange ideas over coffee, visit the exhibition area to see new monitoring or harvesting technologies, and join informal networking events that may spark future collaborations. Post‑conference, attendees may also have access to published proceedings or special journal‑issue opportunities — making this not just a gathering, but a springboard for further research impact.

Moreover, ICFAS 2025 is more than just an academic forum: it’s a community. Whether you are a graduate student with fresh data, an aquaculture entrepreneur exploring new feed solutions, a coastal manager grappling with ecosystem change, or a policy advisor looking for science‑based guidance — there’s something here for you. The organisers emphasise inclusive participation, inviting diverse voices from the Global South, indigenous fishing communities, and private sector innovators.

In short, ICFAS 2025 promises to be a vibrant, constructive and forward‑looking event, one that empowers attendees not only to think about the future of fisheries and aquatic sciences — but to shape it.

Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of the conversation and the solution.
