A recent study on small-scale fishery catches in the Yemeni archipelago by OI members Professor Dirk Zeller and PhD candidate Vania Andreoli from Sea Around Us has revealed a concerning 11-fold increase in fishing effort over the last 70 years. seaaroundus-io.org/sea-around-us-…

Woohoo!! "Trends in Indian Ocean marine fisheries since 1950: synthesis of reconstructed catch and effort data" by our colleagues at the Sea Around Us - Indian Ocean in the top 3! ⬇️ bit.ly/IOsynthesis

So incredibly proud of our team presenting the Aquatic Food Composition Database and relevant applications at UWA Huge congrats to Jessica Zamborain Mason [email protected] and Vania Andreoli for their incredible presentations. Especially Jessica who led the day!

Scientists worldwide are rallying for regulations to eliminate harmful fisheries subsidies. Safeguarding the ocean will strengthen food security and allow more equitable distribution of marine resources. 🐟 🎣 🌊 ⚓ #UWA UWA Research UWA Oceans Institute bit.ly/3SolHtT

Big disappointment, @WTO could not reach an agreement to beef up its 2022 agreement, something desparately needed to protect depleting fish stocks. check out this comment: oceana.org/press-releases… Oceana Pew Environment UBC Oceans UBC SPPGA

The 2024 Ocean Decade Conference starts today! 🌊🙌 Together, we'll open a new chapter for global ocean action to deliver the science we need for the ocean we want. Join the conversation with #OceanDecade24. Not in Barcelona? Tune in to the livestream: ow.ly/aTyt50RbXXr

🐟 DAY 1: The goal of the 2024 Ocean Decade Conference is a noble one: “Delivering the science we need for the ocean we want”, aiming for healthier oceans by 2030. I’m here to contribute my research towards the crucial Decade Challenge: “Sustainably feed the global population”🌊

Day 2:🗣️🌊I just had the incredible opportunity to present my research at the 2024 UN Ocean Decade Conference. Sharing the stage with so many inspiring speakers and contributing to a global dialogue on ocean sustainability has been an absolute highlight.

Impressive moment at #OceanDecade24: @HaakonVatle, Leader of the #OneOceanExpedition that sailed around the world for #OceanScience and education, introduces a surprise element by inviting everyone present to jointly sing a traditional shanty, amended to honor the UN Ocean Decade.
