Abundant Fisheries
Help count fish
To sustainably manage fish, we first need to count them.
The first pillar of effective fisheries management is data. It is impossible to effectively regulate or manage fisheries if you don’t know what you’re managing or where they are. That is why we need accurate and up-to-date stock assessments to ensure the long-term health and abundance of fisheries.
The seafood industry has an important role to play in supporting scientists and governments to gather and analyze data on global fish stocks. And once the data is gathered, industry can support scientists in interpreting and understanding the information.
