NCKU's community outreach about overfishing

Marine Law and Fisheries Courses
Underwater environment and fishing industry-related courses are held at National Cheng Kung University (NCKU). The “Study on Legal Problems in Fish-Breeding and Fishing” at the Institute of Ocean Technology and Marine Affairs (IOTMA) is lectured by Prof. Tsai Chih-Fang from the NCKU Department of Law. Additionally, the course “Environment X Law: Development of Marine Recreation Industries and Environmental Sustainability – Bring the Ocean into Your Life,” offered by the NCKU College of Social Science, discusses overfishing from a legal perspective.

Southern Ocean Conservation Education Center
NCKU established the Southern Ocean Conservation Education Center at the An Nan campus, showcasing records of years of whale and dolphin rescue missions and practical marine conservation work. The center provides visitors with opportunities for knowledge and hands-on learning, fostering marine life conservation awareness and reinforcing the university’s social responsibility.

Marine Biology and Cetacean Research Center
The Marine Biology and Cetacean Research Center, located at NCKU’s An Nan Campus, handles stranded whales in southern Taiwan. Collaborating with the Ocean Conservation Administration, the center established the Southern Ocean Conservation Education Center. It promotes ocean protection through whale conservation demonstrations and conducts research using cetacean samples and water quality monitoring statistics.

 
  1. CLIMATE CHANGE AND MARINE ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION, in Institute of Ocean Technology and Marine Affairs (IOTMA), NCKU
Underwater environment and fishing industries-related courses are held at NCKU. The “CLIMATE CHANGE AND MARINE ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION'' at the Institute of Ocean Technology and Marine Affairs (IOTMA), which is lectured by prof. Shih. Through domestic and international scientific case studies, this program explores the impacts of global climate change on marine environments and ecosystems. It emphasizes how climate-induced changes in the physical and chemical properties of seawater affect marine populations, habitats, and fishery resources, while also examining the conservation and management strategies adopted by different countries to address the challenges of climate change in relation to marine environments and resources.
