Our mission is to reduce poverty and hunger by improving fisheries and aquaculture. We began in 1977 as the International Center for Living Aquatic Resources Management(ICLARM) based in the Philippines. In 2000 we shortened our name to The WorldFish Center and established our new headquarters in Penang, Malaysia. We’re an international, non-profit, non-governmental organization working in partnership with a wide range of government and non-governmental agencies at regional, national and local levels in the developing world, and with advanced research institutions worldwide.

OBS

L’ICLARM – The WorldFish Center est un centre scientifique et technique et international, indépendant et sans but lucratif. Il a pour mission de développer la recherche dans tous les aspects des pêcheries et ressources aquatiques vivantes. Le Centre a été créé à Manille (Philippines) en 1977, sous l’appellation “Centre international pour la gestion des ressources aquatiques vivantes - ICLARM”. Il a adhéré en 1992 au Groupe consultatif pour la recherche agricole internationale (CGIAR). En 2000, son siège a été transféré à Penang (Malaisie) et l’ICLARM a pris un nouveau nom, The WorldFish Center. Le Centre est un organisme de recherche et d’aide à la recherche mais n’est pas un bailleur de fonds. Il établit son programme de travail en concertation avec les pays en développement, afin de lever les obstacles, d’ordre technique et socioéconomique, qui s’opposent à l’augmentation de la production, à l’amélioration de la gestion des ressources et à la répartition équitable des bénéfices. Sa collaboration avec les institutions de pays développés ou en développement est axée sur l’aquaculture, la gestion halieutique et l’aménagement des zones littorales.
