HideDescription
There is an urgent need to reconcile nature conservation and sustainable development. It is also widely recognized that aquaculture practiced under certain conditions significantly contributes to sustainable development in coastal communities and plays a vital role in ensuring food security, poverty alleviation, and economic resilience.
