The ISSF team collaborates internationally with seafood companies, vessels and fishers, fisheries and marine scientists, Regional Fisheries Management Organizations (RFMOs), retailers, and other agencies and stakeholders.
ISSF staff work to advance sustainable tuna fishing practices and policies in many ways — including by participating in global tuna RFMO meetings, directing at-sea research, assessing seafood company conservation efforts, and organizing workshops with tuna fishers.
