Bringing together marine scientists, seafood safety experts, researchers, policymakers, and industry professionals to explore the impact of marine pollution on seafood quality, human health, marine ecosystems, and global seafood supply chains.
Understanding contaminants in marine environments.
Exploring risks to seafood quality and human health.
Advancing monitoring, assessment and solutions.
Connecting environmental protection with responsible seafood production.
Marine pollution is an increasing environmental concern, with implications for marine ecosystems, aquatic food resources and human health. Plastics, microplastics, chemical contaminants, heavy metals, oil pollution and other emerging pollutants can enter marine environments through multiple sources, raising concerns about their presence in aquatic organisms and seafood.
As seafood continues to play an important role in global food security, nutrition and international trade, understanding the relationship between marine pollution and seafood safety has become increasingly important.
This webinar will bring together experts from marine science, environmental research, seafood safety, public health and the seafood industry to examine current scientific evidence, emerging risks, monitoring approaches and potential solutions.
Discover how research, regulatory frameworks and industry collaboration can contribute to cleaner oceans, safer seafood and a more sustainable blue economy.
Explore important areas of scientific research shaping the understanding and management of marine pollution.
Investigating the occurrence, distribution and potential impacts of microplastics and nanoplastics in marine ecosystems and seafood.
Understanding the presence and potential risks of PFAS, mercury, heavy metals, persistent organic pollutants and other contaminants in aquatic environments.
Exploring scientific evidence on contaminant exposure through seafood consumption, food safety assessments and public health implications.
Examining analytical methods, environmental monitoring systems and scientific approaches to identifying and assessing marine contaminants.
Discussing strategies for reducing marine pollution through innovation, responsible production, policy development and industry collaboration.
Connecting scientific knowledge, environmental protection and sustainable seafood production.
Marine pollution presents challenges that extend beyond environmental degradation. Contaminants in aquatic environments can raise questions about seafood safety, consumer confidence, regulatory compliance and international seafood trade.
Addressing these challenges requires collaboration between researchers, regulatory authorities, testing laboratories, seafood producers, processors and environmental organisations.
This webinar will provide a platform to exchange scientific knowledge, discuss emerging research, understand regulatory developments and explore practical approaches to reducing pollution and protecting seafood resources.
Exchange research findings and emerging scientific perspectives.
Understand regulatory developments and seafood safety requirements.
Encourage cooperation between research, industry and policymakers.
Explore practical approaches to reducing pollution and protecting seafood resources.
Examine current scientific evidence, understand emerging environmental risks and identify opportunities to strengthen marine protection and seafood safety.
Examine the major sources and types of marine pollution and their impacts on aquatic ecosystems.
Explore the occurrence and potential implications of microplastics, nanoplastics and chemical contaminants in seafood.
Understand the relationship between marine pollution, seafood safety and human health.
Discuss analytical methods, monitoring systems and scientific approaches for assessing marine contaminants.
Review international regulatory developments and their implications for seafood producers, processors and exporters.
Identify research gaps and opportunities for pollution prevention, sustainable seafood production and industry collaboration.
Connect marine scientists, environmental researchers, seafood safety professionals, policymakers and industry stakeholders through scientific exchange.
