- Strategic Approach 2: Improve the quality and value of artisanal fish products to maintain household income and increase the nutritious food supply for local and regional markets.
- Strategic Approach 3: Improve fisheries policymaking, regulation, and enforcement governance transparency, accountability, and co-management.
- Strategy 4: Build constituency for sustainable fisheries management.
Strategy 5: Improve policy and management decisions through science and research.
