FIP & AIP Archive
Demonstrated Improvement
When SFP was first founded, we worked with stakeholders to establish, implement, and manage fishery improvement projects (FIPs), to demonstrate that FIPs could lead to improvements in fishery management. As FIPs became more widely used, we shifted our focus to transferring FIP leadership to industry, and became less directly involved in implementation.
This Archive includes FIPs and AIPs that SFP once directly supported but which are now led by industry or another third party. The profiles have been updated to the point when SFP stopped direct involvement. The best resource for finding up-to-date information about active FIPs is FisheryProgress.org. Current AIPs can be found in the AIP Directory.
