Ocean Outcomes

Plenty of fish in the sea? According to a new study published in Science, we could be overestimating global fish populations by 11.5%. Effective fishery management and improving sustainability requires accurate estimates of stocks and trends 👉 https://bit.ly/3XcNoIp

Really excited to be working with Ocean Outcomes, ABALOBI, and International Pole & Line Foundation (IPNLF) in this pilot project demonstrate how the FIP model can become more inclusive of fishers. This project builds off of lessons learned from the implementation of the FisheryProgress Human Rights and Social Responsibility Policy, with the goal to co-create a user-friendly toolkit to more effectively engage fishers.

We’re traveling to Bali next week for the 4th Asia Pacific FIP Community of Practice (FIPCOP) Workshop! FIPCOP is a great opportunity to connect with other FIP stakeholders and share lessons learned, successes, and challenges—with the ultimate goal of improving the impact and effectiveness of FIPs in the region 👉 https://bit.ly/47gVZyh We’re excited to have two of our O2 staff present at FIPCOP this year —  🐟 Social Responsibility Program Manager Gabrielle Lout, PhD, will lead a session on fisher power & participation in FIPs, and speak on a panel covering Social Responsibility Assessment implementation in small-scale FIPs. 🐟 Asia Fishery Improvement Manager, Ho-Tu Chiang, will speak on a panel covering fisher engagement in Human Rights and Social Responsibility Policy implementation.

Former long-time leader at Ocean Outcomes, Daniel Suddaby is now recruiting at his new organization. Love tuna? Have a look!
