🛡️ Observer coverage isn't just about fish - it's about people too.

Our Advocacy Lead Wetjens Dimmlich notes: "Improved monitoring is a key mechanism to enhance transparency, strengthen accountability" - protecting both the industry AND the fishers who make it possible.

🎣 What is the #IATTC?

It's a Regional Fisheries Management Organization responsible for the conservation and management of #tuna in the Eastern Pacific Ocean. The commission sets quotas, establishes #fishing rules, and implements #conservation measures.

🔎 Un monitoreo efectivo es fundamental para la gestión pesquera sostenible.

💡 Por eso, lanzamos #SinPuntosCiegos, para cerrar las brechas de gestión completa de las poblaciones de atún, verificar el cumplimiento normativo y garantizar el bienestar de las tripulaciones.

🔎 Effective monitoring is fundamental to #sustainable fisheries management.

💡 That’s why we’ve launched our new campaign, #NoBlindSpots, to close the gaps that make it impossible to fully manage #tuna stocks, verify compliance, and ensure crew welfare.

Tuna #fishers have a right... 

To equal pay, safe working conditions, and communication with loved ones — at a minimum.

A few fishing fleets fail to meet these basic human rights, leaving the very people who supply us with #tuna at risk of exploitation. 👇

🔏 RFMO engagement is a significant part of our work at GTA.

Why?

⚖️ Because it gives our Partners voice and us a seat in regional agenda and policy decisions.

Because this is where our advocacy work is most impactful.

⚠️It's no secret that the tuna industry faces significant social challenges, from unsafe working conditions and low wages to reports of human trafficking — compounded by the often isolated nature of tuna fishing, making oversight and enforcement challenging.
