Tenerife For three days next summer, it will be the scientific and gastronomic capital of the Spanish sea as the venue for the V Meeting of the Seas. The congress, organized by Vocento Gastronomía and promoted by the Cabildo, will take place from July 16 to 19 and will be attended by some of the best oceanographers and marine biologists, as well as prestigious chefs, fishermen, shipowners, businessmen in the sector and journalists. All the agents involved will analyze on the Island the challenges for the conservation of the oceans in the next decade.

The president of the Cabildo de Tenerife, Pedro Martín, appreciates that this forum, in previous editions with Andalusia as the venue, will take place on the island for the next three years. That, he explains, “will make Tenerife a benchmark among the territories that defend the future of the seas and their ecosystems.” And that, in addition, “they are committed to the ecological wealth and the economic, tourist and social potential of our seas”.

Preserving the ecosystem and marine resources is the axis of this edition of the prestigious forum

The general director of Vocento Gastronomía, Benjamín Lana, underlines: «This congress, unique in the world for enrolling chefs, scientists and seafarers, has established itself as an initiative committed to the responsible exploitation of marine resources and on a journey that seeks to change the course of the destruction of the oceans.

The conservation of the ecosystem and marine food is the theme of this edition, which will discuss overfishing, marine waste, protection of cetaceans or gastronomic tourism, but also salted, smoked and frozen foods.

Itinerant

The Meeting of the Seas is an itinerant congress, with about 100 guests who will travel to different locations on the island over three days. Organized by Vocento Gastronomía and promoted by the Cabildo, it will focus its attention on the oceans as the only possible source of sustainable and healthy human food in the coming decades.

The Island, land of the sea and seas, remains the gate and port of the Atlantic cultures, not only to America. Totally linked to the sea, its traditions and sustainability. Endorsed by an important artisanal fishing activity near the coast around an enormous variety of coastal species – vieja, sama, grouper, sargo, chopa, etc.–, coastal or oceanic pelagic resources –sardine, mackerel, mackerel, anchovy, boga , tuna and similar) – and shellfish (shrimps, limpets and crabs). Tenerife is in the middle of one of the most important tuna migratory routes in the Atlantic. The congress will be marked by the historic agreement reached at the UN for the protection of the oceans. Gastronomically, it will address two of the oldest cooking techniques used to preserve food: salting and smoking.

During the event, the Sartún International Prize will be awarded, which recognizes initiatives in defense of marine ecosystems. Waste will also be discussed. More than eight million tons of plastic enter the oceans each year, which is the equivalent of dumping a truckload of plastic garbage every minute. If this rate continues, by 2050 the oceans will have more plastic mass than fish, and 99% of seabirds will have ingested plastic.
