A true private-public partnership
In the face of large-scale commercial fishing and dwindling fish stocks in the Coral Triangle, the handline tuna fishermen of Lagonoy Gulf and Mindoro Strait in the Philippines can still dream of a better life, thanks to institutionalized support for their traditional ways with help from a public- private partnership facilitated by WWF and funded by Bell/Coop and Seafresh.
By training fishers and traders on proper tuna handling and processing, this market-driven approach to fisheries management, which includes approximately 6,000 tuna fishers, has improved fishers’ income by encouraging them to focus on the quality of fish catch, allowing them to stay in step with global market demands while cooperating and actively participating as co-managers in the conservation and management of resources for long-term sustainability.
