| FAO to build databank of global codes of practice in aquaculture |
| Monday, 08 March 2010 14:14 | |||

The FAO Aquaculture Service is calling for contributions to the development of a worldwide overview and databank of Codes of Practice, Codes of Conduct, Best (Better) Management Practices, Technical Guidelines, and similar policies, in aquaculture. The Service has requested all those interested in the promotion of sustainable aquaculture development to inform FAO of the existence of COP/BMP documents in their countries or regions. In particular, all aquaculture producer associations and farmer organizations are encouraged to send to FAO their Codes of Practice, Codes of Conduct, Best (Better) Management Practices, Technical Guidelines, and related documents. COPs/BMPs in aquaculture with national and international organizations are also important and should also be contributed. These documents can be sent to FAO as hard copies or electronically, or, if available online, by informing FAO of the relevant website, internet link, or URL. More information about this initiative is available at FAO’s aquaculture gateway page: ftp://ftp.fao.org/FI/DOCUMENT/aquaculture/COPBMP/call.pdf or from Mr Uwe Barg, Fishery Resources Officer (Aquaculture),
