Vilanova de Arousa in Galicia, Spain, will host the ‘IYAFA Regional workshop: Getting the story straight and envisioning a fair future for small-scale fisheries in Europe’ on November 13-16.

Its key themes include:

  3. Strengthening capacities of SSF and support organizations and building alliances.
  4. Women’s role in fisheries in the region.

The workshop will highlight that the attention to SSF, along with their crucial role as food producers globally, should continue beyond IYAFA 2022.
