Amidst the ongoing challenge of Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated (IUU) Fishing worldwide, the Pacific Islands Forum Fisheries Agency (FFA) has called for collective action to tackle the human elements of IUU fishing, including safeguarding observer safety and livelihoods, ensuring safe and decent labour conditions for crew, and unveiling the “persons of interest” behind IUU fishing. FFA Director General, Dr Manu Tupou-Roosen made the call when speaking online to the recent Chatham House International Forum on IUU Fishing.
