Abstract
Their great diversity and potential makes the development of marine and fisheries resources a priority for Indonesia, and a key orientation of long-term development planning. The development of valuable maritime and fishery resources has been encouraged by the government as a means to achieve food security and economic independence.These abundant marine and fisheries resources are the mainstay of Indonesia’s efforts to achieve Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) number 14: “Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development”.As a contribution towards achieving SDG 14, each year the Faculty of Marine Science and Fisheries at Universitas Hasanuddin holds a national and international marine and fisheries symposium. The theme of the 2019 Symposium is “Managing Aquatic Resources for Sustainable Development”. This symposium will provide opportunities for participants to exchange information, knowledge and experience, as well as to initiate partnerships for research and outreach activities in the field of marine science and fisheries. These exchanges and partnerships will contribute towards enhancing the potential, development and utilization of marine and fishery resources in sustainable ways.A warm welcome to the researchers and participants from a wide cross-section of the marine and fisheries sector and thank you for coming to taking part in this Universitas Hasanuddin Marine Science and Fisheries Symposium. A heartfelt thank you is also due to the many people and organisations that have provided support or contributed in any way towards the successful realisation of this Symposium. May all the contributions made during this event provide valuable input to support marine and fisheries development in Indonesia.Makassar, 5 September 2019Dean,Dr.Ir.St Aisjah Farhum, MSi
