World Fisheries day

 World Fisheries day

World Fisheries day is celebrated every year on November 21 throughout the world by the fisherfolk communities.

Fishing communities worldwide celebrate this day through rallies, workshops, public meetings, cultural programs, dramas, exhibition, music show, and demonstrations to highlight the importance of maintaining the world's fisheries.

The World Fisheries Day helps in highlighting the critical importance to human lives, of water and the lives it sustains, both in and out of water. Water forms a continuum, whether contained in rivers, lakes, and ocean.

The human population consumes over 100 million tons of fish annually
