Fisheries Resource Education Programme (F-REP)
F-REP is a residential learning event designed to bring together people from the fishing industry, science
and fisheries management to understand each other’s expertise and work together effectively. These are tailored to support engagement in FMPs and the science used in decision-making.
These dynamic events help people work together effectively, from the moment of arrival and throughout, fostering trust between attendees via mutual working and socialising. We share learning spaces and we share meals: breaking down barriers to collaboration and dismantling preconceptions around hierarchies and ‘in-groups’.
They are focused on outcomes – ensuring participants leave equipped to engage in fisheries management processes, such as FMPs, now and into the future. They are also tailored to be relevant and engaging, facilitated by fishermen and designed to resonate with fishing participants in particular.
We use regional, fishery, and species-specific approaches to deliver impactful content.
