Join a discussion of experts on trends in fisher organizing in seafood supply chains and how government policies can help stem unfair competition, followed by a reception.
Please note that the event is in the Third Floor Conference Room, and that guests must check in at the lobby-level reception desk
Forced labor and illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing create unfair competition in the seafood industry, making it difficult for countries to uphold international agreements on fishers’ rights and the management of ocean resources. Responsible seafood buyers and retailers have sought to prevent IUU for years and are now seeking more specific approaches to protecting the rights of fishery workers in their supply chains.
The rise in fisher organizing and the uptake of the ILO’s Convention 188 on Work in Fishing provide opportunities for dialogue that can strengthen human rights due diligence and other corporate accountability initiatives in the seafood industry.
Panelists will discuss these trends and ARC’s latest research – 
Upwelling: Fishers Organizing for their Rights and Sustainable Fisheries
 – a report produced in collaboration with the Fisheries Governance Project.

生长在海边的果果

The Capitol building needs to make an appointment to buy tickets in advance to visit. Arrive on time according to the requirements. There are many people. Be sure to have an advance amount to not affect the itinerary. You can make an appointment for a Chinese tour in advance. Although it is a Chinese tour, it is also a foreigner tour guide who speaks English and uses a translator to translate it into Chinese to play it for us. It is very interesting. The interior of the Capitol is also very good from the perspective of the building itself. You must explain it when you go in and visit.

National Mall

The National Mall is a must-check-in place for Washington tourism. One is the Lincoln Memorial and the other is the Washington Monument. There is a pool of water between them and green spaces on both sides. There are monuments such as the Victory Memorial of World War II, the Vietnam War and other monuments, and the Jefferson Memorial. The beautiful cherry blossoms of the annual Washington Cherry Blossom Festival are also in full bloom around this area. We arrived in Washington at the end of April. It is a pity that the cherry blossoms have been lost and have not left a trace. I can only imagine that the scene of blooming must be beautiful.

The White House

泰迪小熊

Came on September 22, 2017. I heard that the White House has not been open to the public since 911, and we can only look far outside the fence when we go, so the White House has become a boring landmark, taking a photo of the tourists who &ldquo;come here&rdquo; to check in. There is a big pine tree on the south side of the White House, and I didn&rsquo;t expect it to be a &ldquo;landmark&rdquo; and a &ldquo;national Christmas tree&rdquo;... Well, it seems that you should pick Christmas to visit.

Lincoln Memorial

Night view

[Value for money] It is open 24 hours a day and is free. Although we went there at 6 o&#39;clock, it gets dark early in winter. But the momentum is still there.

But why do I feel that the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall in Taipei is so similar to the Lincoln Memorial!

[Scenery] It is magnificent! Facing the Washington Monument! At this moment, I suddenly remembered Chairman Mao&#39;s poem &quot;The country is so beautiful, attracting countless heroes to compete for it!

Washington Monument

铨上风满楼

Washington DC monument is one of the landmark buildings in Washington... built in honor of the first president of the United States. This stone monument was once the world&#39;s tallest building... Now there is still an obelisk with the world&#39;s tallest stone structure...
