Illuminating Hidden Harvests is a collaboration between @fao.org, @duke-university.bsky.social, @worldfish.bsky.social, and @stanforddoerr.bsky.social, bringing over 800 experts to shed light on the importance of small-scale fisheries to sustainable development.
The Illuminating Hidden Harvests initiative works to gather data to show how small-scale fisheries support hundreds of millions of people across the globe. Research presented in Nature Portfolio journals presents some of the findings. 🌊 🧪
