Slow Fish Istanbul
Turkey - 25 Oct 13 - Michèle Mesmain
While the city outside was celebrating the Bayram festival last week, the grounds of Istanbul’s Bosphorus University were filling with a diverse range of people. An Albanian chef, a Bulgarian Greenpeace activist and a representative from the Turkish Ministry of Fisheries met with a former-illegal fisher turned campaigner and a wise-beyond-his-years Greek teenage harpoon fisher, along with hundreds of others. All were there to tackle the same problem: how to guarantee a future for our oceans, and to the fishers and communities that rely on their sustainability.
