Sustainable Fisheries & Blue Economy

Partnership and innovation for ocean health and coastal prosperity

 We partner with companies, funders, and civil society to build sustainable, equitable, and transparent seafood systems—and to unlock the full potential of the Blue Economy for coastal communities and ocean ecosystems.

Sector Expertise

Sustainable Seafood and Ocean Conservation

Sustainable Seafood and Ocean Conservation

We harness collaboration and cutting-edge technologies for sustainable seafood and ocean conservation. With over 25 cross-sector partnerships in Southeast Asia and West Africa, we have worked directly with major seafood and technology companies, donors, and leading civil society partners to co-create new approaches to foster sustainable, equitable, and transparent global seafood supply chains.

Plastics Pollution & Ocean Health

Marine plastic pollution threatens ecosystems, fisheries, and coastal economies. We design multi-stakeholder collaborations that support entrepreneurs, small and medium enterprises, and local communities to scale solutions that reduce plastic use and stop plastic waste from reaching the ocean. Our work in this space includes launching and managing large-scale alliances that connect corporate sustainability commitments to on-the-ground impact.

Fisheries Governance & Coastal Community Resilience

Rebuilding fish stocks and protecting coastal livelihoods requires robust governance and community-centered approaches. We support governments, civil society, and the private sector in strengthening fisheries management frameworks, developing co-management models, and designing programs that center the rights and economic wellbeing of fisherfolk—particularly women and small-scale producers.

Aquaculture Development & Improvement

As overfishing strains wild fish populations, responsibly managed aquaculture is increasingly critical to meeting global seafood demand. We design and implement business models, partnership strategies, and improvement projects that advance sustainable aquaculture practices—reducing environmental harm, improving livelihoods, and helping producers meet international certification and market standards.

Data-Driven Learning and Adaptation

Solutions for complex environmental challenges are often innovative and part of a greater systems approach. We customize Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) and change management strategies and tools that are critical to improvement and scalability to drive greater and more transformative impact.

"Climate. Biodiversity. Sustainability. Nearly every societal challenge is also an environmental one. We are at a defining moment, one in which organizations across sectors must be driving solutions. We facilitate and implement those opportunities."
