ICCAT has the potential to double the number of species it manages with MPs at its 2023 Commission meeting that begins on November 13^th.

The sound of the gavel at the Commission’s conclusion ushered in a new era of sustainable fisheries management for the eastern Pacific. IATTC has now joined the club of other tRFMOs that have applied MSE and harvest strategies for their fisheries, and a growing community of RFMOs that are formalizing their focus on climate change.

IATTC enters this year’s Commission meeting with rare momentum that could be a game changer for management of tunas and tuna-like species in the eastern Pacific.  This is an opportunity not to be missed.

Join www.harveststrategies.org and our partners as we provide an update on harvest strategy development and implementation at each of the regional fisheries management organizations dedicated to tunas (tRFMOs).
