Dados Sobre o Projeto

Coral reef fisheries are vital for supporting subsistence and artisanal fishers across the Pacific Island Countries and Territories (PICTs). However, they are increasingly threatened by land-based pollution, changing fishing practices, and habitat degradation. To address these challenges, there is an urgent need for research that provides regionally representative data on fisheries changes and pollution exposure, integrates Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) into management strategies, and enhances local capacity to support conservation efforts. This project will be conducted in four geographically diverse PICTs: Fiji, Tonga, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu, with four distinct objectives: (i) enhance capacity in PICTs; (ii) establish a regional baseline for microplastics (MP) in reef-associated food fishes; (iii) document TEK concerning reef-associated food fishes and pollution using social science methodologies; and (iv) inform national and regional conservation initiatives. The project concentrates on important reef-associated food fish species, identified by local stakeholders and spanning various trophic and functional groups. By fostering the co-production of research and knowledge with local partners, this project aims to establish a critically needed regional baseline of MP contamination in common food fishes (highlighting risks to human health and nutrition). Additionally, TEK will reveal preferences and catch trends, providing essential biological data to inform management tools that enhance food security.
