To celebrate another successful year of The Swedish Postcode Foundation project in Latvia, at the beginning of October Pasaules Dabas Fonds organized a media event to look back at this year’s achievements. The range of media representatives present heard about Pasaules Dabas Fonds, WWF activities and recent studies. They also enjoyed a mini masterclass from the chef of the restaurant FERMA on ways to minimize food waste when preparing fish and seafood products, as well as how to prepare new recipes with freshwater species. Participants savoured sustainable seafood dishes such as tench tureen, smoked catfish and perch croquette.
