YA06 - From Consultation to Action: Youth Shaping the Future of Fisheries and Aquaculture Governance.



The event entitled YA06 - From Consultation to Action: Youth Shaping the Future of Fisheries and Aquaculture Governance is a high-level session scheduled for 14 October 2026 at 14:00 (Rome time) inside the Ethiopia Room at the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) Headquarters in Rome. This event showcases the vital role young researchers, producers, and policy leaders play in transforming aquatic food systems. It serves as a dedicated platform to present policy recommendations generated by the Global Youth Constituency on Fisheries and Aquaculture (GYCFA) and discusses how they can actively inform future global policy frameworks. The session transitions from theoretical "consultation" to real-world "action" by focusing on several critical pathways:
Youth Recommendations for COFI: Building on the framework of the FAO Committee on Fisheries (COFI), this session integrates youth voices into national and regional policy pipelines. 
Climate Change & Policy Integration: Highlighting practical entry points for youth to contribute to Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and National Adaptation Plans (NAPs).
Evidence-Based Co-Design: Showcasing how young scientists bring innovative tools and local knowledge to create inclusive, community-driven climate adaptation strategies. 


Location: Rome, Metropolitan City of Rome Capital, Italy
