Sawfish Conservation Strategy Workshop

Shark and ray experts from around the world gathered in May (21st - 24th) at the Zoological Society London to address the plight of the most threatened marine fishes in the world – the sawfishes. The group developed a focused global action plan to bring these iconic species back from the brink of extinction. Participants presented summaries of the status of sawfishes in their region or stakeholder group. Finally, the Red List assessment for each species was updated given the new information that has been made available since the original assessments in 2006.

YouTube videos and powerpoints (where available) of the workshop presentations are available here.
