📋 Tender Overview
Preparations are underway for the upcoming Aquaculture Africa Conference 2024, which aims to foster collaboration and partnership between the different stakeholders of the aquaculture industry.
The 2024 edition of the Aquaculture Africa Conference series will be held in Hammamet, Tunisia, from 19 - 22 November, and aims to forge new bonds between the various sectors of the industry, including producers, international government development agencies, finance institutions, NGOs, and the research community.
The conference and trade show will bring together hundreds of speakers from across Africa and globally to connect and share their experiences, insights and new innovations.
The programme will begin with a keynote opening ceremony followed by presentation sessions, workshops, field visits, and learning and networking opportunities spread over four days. The conference theme, Blue Farming: New Horizons for Economic Growth, highlights how partnerships in science, education and technological advancement can help drive innovations in Africa’s blue economy agenda.
With contributions and presentations from the public and private sector, producers, researchers, academic institutions, developmental and financial institutions, the event offers a unique opportunity to explore latest innovations and experiences – a melting pot of global and African aquaculture communities. The conference will recognise and celebrate the gains in sustainable aquaculture development in Africa thus far, and propose solutions to some of the continent’s developmental challenges.
Session themes include sustainable aquaculture in the face of climate change, aquaculture financing, aquatic animal health, aquafeeds, biotechnology, and youth and gender. Debuting for the first time this year is also a session focussing on the development of Africa's seaweed industry.
Registration details for Aquaculture Africa 2024 can be found on the event page.
Prior to the event, an interactive Zoom session will connect global aquaculture audiences and present the event programmes and other logistics.
