#ICYMI - Fisheries are a public resource, and the industry continues to lag behind comparable sectors in terms of effective governance and oversight. The sector is facing key challenges around sustainability and accountability, which are exacerbated by illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing operations. In this new briefing by Tymon Kiepe and Pete Low, Open Ownership explores how #BeneficialOwnership (BO) hashtag #transparency can improve the fisheries sector, beyond tackling crime, through the implementation of national, central BO registers. https://lnkd.in/edY6ecVN #fisheries #IUU

🌊 Community Catch Consultation: Empowering Small-Scale Fisheries for a Sustainable Future 🌊 Small-scale fisheries (SSFs) are the unsung heroes of our oceans, contributing roughly half of the world's fish catches and providing livelihoods for over 90% of the global fishers and fish workers, with half being women and covering the planet! Yet, they often struggle with market access, fair pricing, and recognition. Community Catch is hoping to change that by creating innovative, market-based solutions that enable SSFs to achieve sustainability, access better markets, and improve their communities' well-being. AND.. they need your voice to shape the future of sustainable small-scale fisheries. Your input will help ensure that our programs are effective, inclusive, and beneficial for fishers worldwide. See Below to provide your inputs and voice.. Together, we can create a future where small-scale fishers thrive, our oceans are healthy, and sustainable seafood is available for all. 🌍🐟 #CommunityCatch #SustainableFishing #SmallScaleFisheries #OceanConservation #FoodSecurity #SustainableDevelopment
