This, we agreed, was necessary because of the distinctive and numerous specialized subjects that are dealt with in the papers included in these proceedings. We thought that any reader might benefit from a comparison of the past and present situation, and perhaps therefore obta in a better perspective on where or in which directions fishery research should be going. Several names of well known fishery scientists come to mind who might provide the critical, yet positive messages about what had or had not been done in the past, what needed attention now and perhaps directions to take in the future. To our surprise and satisfaction we found these kinds of messages clearly stated in an existing text. The following excerpts were even alre ady available under a chapter headed, “Review of the Present Position of Investigations”: “The study of methodically collected material, embracing a period of many years, has demonstrated the existence of an intimate relation between the fluctuations in the numerical value of the stock of fish and the yield of the great fisheries…

Policy briefPolicy briefOutcomes and lessons learned from the Koronivia UNFCCC negotiations on agriculture and food security, and the way forward after COP 27
Brief note
2023Also available in:
No results found.The Koronivia Joint Work on Agriculture (KJWA) was established at COP23 to address six topics in the agricultural sector's role in climate change. KJWA has contributed to sharing scientific and technical knowledge, but limitations remain in translating outcomes into concrete climate actions. The new four-year joint work on the implementation of climate action on agriculture and food security, which prioritizes ending hunger and considers national circumstances, includes the creation of an online portal for sharing information. The four-year agenda is shaped and broadened through the submission of views by parties, observers, and civil society and will be considered by SBSTA and SBI in June 2023.
