The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the International Council for Game and Wildlife Conservation held a panel discussion session entitled 'Protected Areas and Sustainable Hunting and Fishing' during the World Parks Congress of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) in Sydney, Australia. The joint FAO - CIC session examined the role of hunting and fishing in the planning and management of protected areas, whether these activities could support local community-based development and how management can maintain the wildlife habitat and hence a valuable food source.
