The Finnish-Swedish transboundary river commission invites to an international seminar in Kemi, Finland with the theme: Offshore wind power and migratory fish. This is a follow up to a seminar arranged in March 2023 with the same theme.

The purpose is to create a forum of experts, authorities, stakeholders, project developers as well as other interested parties for an exchange of information about the state of knowledge regarding the impacts of offshore wind power on migratory fish. Some relevant questions are:

• What knowledge and experiences are there at the moment?
• What knowledge is missing?
• How can combined and cumulative impacts be assessed?
• How is relevant transboundary co-operation being done?

More information about the arrangements and more detailed program will come later.

The Agriculture and Fisheries Council will be held in Luxembourg on 21-22 October 2024.
