Small-scale fishers (SSF) are the most numerous ocean users, and their major contributions to livelihoods, food security, employment, and revenue, contrast with their marginalisation in decision-making. To ensure healthy and resilient fishing communities, SSF require secure and preferential access to healthy oceans and ecosystems to effectively play their key roles as guardians of the ocean. SSF demand that governments address the lack of science based, transparent, participative fisheries management and threats posed by pollution, competition for space and resources by other blue economy industries, and to invest in long-term resource management, ecosystems restoration and innovations introduced by women and men from fishing communities.
