El Salvador to host LACQUA26
El Salvador is to host this year’s Latin American & Caribbean Aquaculture conference, one of the most important aquaculture events in Latin America and the Caribbean.
The event will take place from 27-30 October, and will bring together producers, researchers, academics, industry leaders, investors, and decision-makers, serving as a key forum for knowledge exchange, strategic partnerships, and the promotion of sustainable aquaculture development in Latin America and the Caribbean.
LACQUA26 is organised by the Latin American and Caribbean Chapter of the World Aquaculture Society (LACC-WAS), in collaboration with the local organiser CENDEPESCA – Center for Fisheries and Aquaculture Development, an agency of the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock of El Salvador, and with the support of CORTASUR – Salvadoran Tourism Corporation.
El Salvador was chosen as the host country due to its strategic location in Central America, the steady growth of its fisheries and aquaculture sector, its regional connectivity, and its strong commitment to innovation, sustainability, and food security.
The call is now open for scientific and technical abstracts, with submissions to be considered for oral and poster presentations during the conference.
Abstracts may be submitted through the official link: www.was.org/Meeting/Abstract/Submit/LACQUA26
There is also the opportunity for those interested in attending the conference to take advantage of early registration rates, which are available until 1 August. Registration can be completed through the official link below: www.was.org/Meeting/Registration/Submit/LACQUA26
In addition, commercial exhibition booths are now available for sale, offering companies, suppliers, universities, research centres, and industry stakeholders the opportunity to showcase products, services, technologies, and innovations at the largest aquaculture trade show in Central America, with strong regional and international projection.
