Abstract:
"The primary intent of the International Workshop on the Trade in Coral Reef Species: Development of International Guidelines for Environmentally Friendly Coral Mariculture was to better understand the mariculture of stony corals and the means to reduce the reliance on wild harvested corals for use in trade. The workshop also provided a forum for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Coral Reef Conservation Program to continue initiatives to address unsustainable and destructive trade in coral reef species. The workshop was held in Bali, Indonesia on July 12- 15, 2011 and was attended by 44 participants, including key stakeholders (government, industry, academia, and non-governmental organizations) from exporting nations (Indonesia, Malaysia, and Papua New Guinea), potential exporting nations (Philippines and Timor Leste), and importing countries (Canada, United Kingdom, and United States)."
