#Partnerships | UNDP Pacific Resident Representative visits FFA The Resident Representative of the @UNDP @UNDP_Pacific , Mukkhtuya (Tuya) Altangerel, visited the FFA headquarters in Honiara yesterday. Ms Altangerel met with FFA Director-General Noan David Pakop and acknowledged the significant work being delivered through the Oceanic Fisheries Management Project 3 #OFMP3, which is funded by the @theGEF, implemented by @UNDP and executed by FFA. Their discussions covered a range of emerging and ongoing priorities for the region, including efforts to combat illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing, the potential applications of artificial intelligence in fisheries management, practical approaches to implementing the BBNJ Agreement, amongst other areas of mutual interest. The visit concluded with a tour of FFA's Regional Fisheries Surveillance Centre (RSFC), where Ms Altangerel gained further insight into the regional cooperation and monitoring efforts that support sustainable fisheries management across the Pacific. FFA values its strong partnership with UNDP and looks forward to continuing to work together to strengthen ocean governance and support Pacific Island countries in safeguarding their fisheries resources for future generations. #FFA #UNDPPacific #BluePacific #SustainableFisheries #OceanGovernance #PacificPartnerships #OFMP3 #IUUFishing

A fancy California restaurant was fined after seafood marketed as lawful & sustainable was in fact #IUUfishing from MPAs. Cases like this show why seafood traceability and enforcement matter. Similarly in the EU, #seafood labelling lacks basic information. yahoo.com/news/us/articles/u…
