What is World Fish Migration Day?
World Fish Migration Day is a one-day global celebration to create awareness of open rivers and migratory fish. This international day of events is coordinated by the World Fish Migration Foundation. On World Fish Migration Day, organizations from around the world coordinate their own event around the common theme of: CONNECTING FISH, RIVERS AND PEOPLE.
What is a Migratory Fish?
Migratory fishes are fishes that swim short or long distances daily, yearly or annually, as a way to complete their life cycle, feed and/or make love!
Creating awareness is an essential first step to make real change. The main goal of World Fish Migration Day is to improve the public's understanding of the importance of migratory fish and how we can reduce our impact on them. The next step is to enable citizens on the world to take action on these topics. Ultimately, the aim is to create sustainable commitments from NGOs, governments and industry on safeguarding free rivers and restoring swimways or migratory fish.
