Victorian Climate Change Strategy for Fisheries and Aquaculture 2008-2018
 |
The Victorian Climate Change Strategy for Fisheries and Aquaculture 2008-2018 will help to ensure the long term sustainability of Victoria’s fisheries resources by guiding activities to support the fishing and aquaculture sectors and fisheries managers to prepare for, and adapt to, the impacts of a changing climate.
The Strategy covers all fishing and aquaculture for both inland and marine waters.
Research information obtained under the Strategy will:
- assist Victoria’s fishing and aquaculture sectors to implement actions to manage their own exposure to climate change risks and to successfully meet the challenges and opportunities ahead
- be used by the Department of Primary Industries to assist the industry to prepare for the challenges
- inform reviews of the legislation, plans and policies necessary to sustainably manage our community’s fisheries resources within a changing climate.
Please direct any enquiries about the Victorian Climate Change Strategy for Fisheries and Aquaculture 2008-2018 to the Department of Primary Industries Customer Service Centre on customer.service@dpi.vic.gov.au or 136 186.
