Working with fishers for living seas
Sustainable fishing benefits both the sea and the people who depend on it. By protecting fish stocks, marine biodiversity, and habitats, it helps ensure healthy seas while supporting livelihoods, food security, and local traditions.
Promoting sustainable fishing practices is essential for resilient coastal communities, a strong local economy, and the long-term balance between human activity and marine ecosystems.
