The students from The United Nations University Fisheries Training Programme in Iceland, who have been here working in the Unviersity Centre of the Westfjods and with the Icelandic Marine Research Institute in Isafjordur since November, will be presenting their final projects on Friday, March 6. Einar Hreinsson and Ólafur Arnar Ingólfsson from the Marine Research Institute, have been guiding the students in their diverse interests and projects on better and more efficient fishing technologies.
