MSc. Karen Belmar Salinas was invited to participate in the APEC Workshop “Development and Application of Ex Post Regulatory Impact Assessment (RIA) Indicators for the Fisheries Management of Jack Mackerel and Giant Squid in APEC Economies.” This project is implemented by the Ministry of Production (PRODUCE) of Peru.
The event took place on November 13 and 14 in Lima, and included the participation of delegations from Peru, Chile, Indonesia, Thailand, Japan, and China. The researcher gave two presentations: “Monitoring the Giant Squid Fishery in Chile” and “Satellite Tagging of Giant Squid in Chile: Preliminary Results in Two Sectors.”
“These kinds of events enrich the exchange of perspectives on methodologies and research conducted in other countries. They also provide an opportunity to meet and network with international researchers. Regarding the presentations, the delegations showed interest in the work carried out by IFOP, and a very interesting atmosphere of questions and discussion ensued,” commented Karen Belmar Salinas, project manager for the jumbo squid monitoring project.
