Esta mañana he intervenido en el Make Fishing Fair Forum, organizado por @LIFEplatformEU y Blue Adventures, con la participación del comisario de Pesca, Costas Kadis. Gracias a LIFE por darme la oportunidad de defender una vez más la pesca artesanal, esencial para nuestras comunidades costeras y para una gestión sostenible de los recursos. 🎣🇪🇺
