The first World Fisheries Day was observed on November 21, 2015. The International Fishermen’s Organization’s official opening took place in New Delhi on the same day. Around 1997, the WFF (World Fisheries Forum), a platform for the World Fisheries Consortium, was founded. Several people from different countries actively participated in this discussion. A worldwide consensus document that indicated the standardization of practices was signed by about 18 countries. Because it gave the community of fishermen a new way to operate, the WFF in 1997 left a lasting impression on history.
