There is one week left to take advantage of the early bird registration for the Shrimp Summit in Chennai, India, June 27-30. This will be a great opportunity to convene with industry experts and hear about the issues impacting the global shrimp industry. Of particular excitement to me will be the developments in improver programs given the fact that the vast majority of farmed shrimp production around the world is coming from small farmers. There will be some exciting examples of new traceability platforms being used to make shrimp supply chains more transparent while also helping the small farmers improve their production efficiencies.

Mark your calendars and save the date so you can get the benefits of early bird pricing.

#WorldMentalHealthDay Since I've opened up about my own workplace nightmare (within the confines of a NDA - and that's another issue!) I have heard story after story of people abused, bullied, threatened, assaulted, ostracised, burned out and exposed to the most awful things in their workplaces. We should all be safe at work, and supported to report risks, hazards and incidents. Reporting is a safety mechanism and should not mean losing your job. I'm convening a roundtable at the upcoming AAS Conference for the AnthroSafety Working Group. "Securing Our Fields: Toward Safer Research and Practice" "Exploring and advancing workplace safety for anthropologists across the spectrum of research and professional engagements. This roundtable will include presentations from the AAS?AnthroSafety?Working Group?and the CNTA?Safety & Risk in Professional Native Title (Anthropology) Working Group (SRPNT(A)). We'll be discussing physical and psychological workplace safety and, practical risk mitigation strategies for our research and professional practice field sites. Presentations will be followed by a panel discussion considering specific opportunities for action in a variety of professional settings." It'd be great to see you there. In the interim this is a great page to explore, NSW Code of Practice: Managing psychosocial hazards at work: https://lnkd.in/gTjCiNSD

In 2024, Rare supported new community-managed protected areas in: ???? Brazil — In Pará state, Rare accelerated designation of two new marine management areas (a.k.a., Resex) spanning 185,329 acres along the Amazon Coast. We supported the federal government’s Instituto Chico Mendes De Conservacao Da Biodiversidade (ICMBio) to expand the Chocoaré-Mato Grosso Resex by 11,367 acres, ensuring conservation of nearly all the state’s mangroves. ???? Palau — Palau’s Melekeok state government placed an area of ocean under community-led management for the first time. Rare supported the designation process and has collaborated with local fishers to enable them to manage the newly protected area sustainably. ???? Honduras — the designation of the Trujillo Marine Site of Importance for Wildlife (604 miles) will protect 12 nautical miles from the city’s coast. Rare is working closely with ICF, the government agency responsible for managing protected areas, to propose legislation establishing exclusive artisanal fishing rights along Honduras’s Caribbean coast.
