Reducing the Environmental Costs of Industrial Salmon Aquaculture - Felipe Sandoval - UCSB Bren School 2015


 
Felipe Sandoval - Reducing the Environmental Costs of Industrial Salmon Aquaculture
 
This colloquium, presented by Latin American Fisheries Fellowship Program and Bren School, will provide key insight from two global industry and thought leaders. Felipe Sandoval, head of Chile’s largest salmon industry association and former Undersecretary of Fisheries for the country, will provide his unique perspective on the role of government regulation and the challenges for industry in reducing the environmental costs of industrial salmon aquaculture.

Felipe Sandoval is the current president of SalmonChile – an industry association comprised of Chile’s largest salmon producers that seeks to address health, environment, social and economic challenges facing the salmon global industry. Prior to leading SalmonChile, Sandoval was the Undersecretary of Fisheries of Chile, and was tapped by Chilean President Michelle Bachelet to lead the so-called “salmon table,” being a public-private taskforce to address critical urgencies in the sector and lead it out of its earlier state of crisis. Sandoval comes from a civil engineering background, and served for many years in both government posts and in the private sector involved in the fisheries and aquaculture.
