SMALL ISLANDS STATES CONFERENCE:
The first preparatory
meeting of the Global Conference on the Sustainable Development of
Small Island Developing States will be held in New York from 30
August to 10 September 1993. This Conference is scheduled for 25
April to 6 May 1994 in Bridgetown, Barbados. While it does not
specifically address the issue of high seas fisheries, the
Conference will tackle the related problems of coastal communities
and traditional fisheries likely to be affected by the outcome of
this Conference. Look for possible work at this PrepCom on the FAO
Code of Conduct for Responsible Fishing, regarding the integration
of fisheries within coastal management.
