International Fisheries Observer & Monitoring Conference, Reykyavik

The IFOMC is the premier conference series for developing and promoting effective fishery monitoring programs throughout the world, aiming to ensure sustainable marine resource management. Our last conference was held in March 2023 in beautiful Hobart, Tasmania. We very much look forward to welcoming in person the international scientific and fishery monitoring community to discuss and improve aspects of one of the most challenging and dangerous jobs in natural resource management. An extensive program is being crafted to cover the benefits of fishery monitoring programs and ways to enhance observer safety and security through training, policing and legislation, and ample opportunities for socializing and networking are included.
