An attendance of 300 people\u2014both in person and online\u2014is expected.<\/p>\n<p>During the presentation, the Director of Fisheries, Technological Innovation, and Aquaculture, Patricia Garc\u00eda, stated that &#8220;this forum is of great interest, both for its format and the quality of its speakers, as well as for the opportunity it provides to delve into a concept that is so fundamental, yet sometimes difficult to define or put into practice\u2014sustainability.&#8221; A concept, she explained, that must serve as a goal for the entire maritime fishing sector, as its achievement will determine the future of the entire sea-industry chain.<\/p>\n<p>The Director of the Nueva Pescanova Foundation, Marta Costas, emphasized the importance of focusing on sustainability measurement in this third edition. As she explained, \u201cIdentifying key indicators that enhance business efficiency and generate a positive impact on society is the way to move toward a common goal, while also consolidating the work we have been doing at the Nueva Pescanova Foundation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Forum&#8217;s Co-Director, \u00c1ngel Matamoro, outlined the five perspectives that will shape discussions on measurement: NGOs, value chains, institutions, science, and finance\u2014each bringing unique insights that will be explored through five dedicated sessions. &#8220;The diversity of views, experiences, priorities, challenges, and best practices will allow us, by the end of the meeting, to establish recommendations, identify needs, and draw conclusions that contribute to improvements in sustainability,&#8221; he noted.<\/p>\n<p>The invited experts represent leading institutions, associations, research entities, and companies within the fishing and aquaculture sectors. They will offer diverse perspectives on the current situation, priorities, and challenges in the industry&#8217;s pursuit of sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>Among the speakers at the third GSSG Forum will be UNESCO\u2019s ocean observation expert Emma Heslop, FAO\u2019s sustainable trade and value chain consultant Bhakti Anand, and policy assistant to the European Commissioner for Fisheries and Oceans, Antonio Basanta. Rosa Chapela, Director of CETMAR, will moderate one of the roundtable discussions.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The challenge of measuring sustainability<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Today, seafood sustainability is a shared goal among all stakeholders in the value chain, and the means to achieve it lie in responsible action.<\/p>\n<p>The sector and its stakeholders face the challenge of measuring sustainability. On one hand, compliance with current regulations is essential; on the other, identifying effective measurement indicators serves a dual purpose: enhancing business value and efficiency while ensuring a positive impact on society and the environment.
