From October 9 to November 7, 2022, I completed an Erasmus+ internship at the secretariat of the European Aquaculture Society in Ostend (Belgium). During the internship, I learned more about the strategic and organizational process by which European institutions develop and implement policies in the aquaculture sector. In addition, I learned about the role of the EAS - providing membership, running mentoring programs and developing webinars and podcasts. One of the outputs of the internship was the publication of an article in the Aquaculture Europe newsletter entitled "EU AQUACULTURE AND FISHERIES POLICY IN A NUTSHELL".
The article is available online https://www.aquaeas.eu/images/stories/newsletter/NL_Sept-Oct_2022.pdf.
