Abstract

It is indeed very timely that as SEAFDEC approaches its 40th anniversary in December 2007, it is the recipient of the Margarita Liz¬rraga Medal Award for the biennium 2006-2007 given by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. This award is for the efforts of SEAFDEC in promoting the adoption of the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries (CCRF) in the ASEAN Region. Established by FAO in 1997, the Margarita Liz¬rraga Medal Award is given biennially in memory of the late Dr. Margarita Liz¬rraga, FAO Senior Fishery Liaison Officer for her “decisive role in promoting the CCRF and for her productive work in the field of fisheries particularly in developing countries for almost 40 years”. SEAFDEC received the Medal Award for 2006-2007 at the FAO Headquarters in Rome, Italy during the 34th Session of the FAO Conference, 17-24 November 2007.
