Consumption of fish in Europe: new forms of food education
On 21 June PECH Committee is organising a public hearing on the "Consumption of fish in Europe". PECH Members will listen to different presentations from various experts on the subject and will have the opportunity to ask questions.
It is important for consumers to be aware of the situation of stocks on the market so that they can make a responsible choice when buying fish. The objective of this hearing is to report on the measures and instruments that enable them to know the state of the fisheries by encouraging them to consume fish species that are less well known but less exploited. The aim of this responsible action is to contribute to the restocking of the most threatened species, while ensuring the health and well-being of the consumer.
