2. Data collection, industry involvement and I-Fish
Industry feeling pressure  Market demand for sustainability and
certification
• Identifying the role industry can play?
• Key link in the supply chain
• Strong presence in the field
• Willingness to participate
• Ability to invest

3. Small-Scale Tuna Fisheries  Gap in Data
• Data Collection by Indonesian government
• Large ports
• Large vessels
• What about small vessels and small ports?
 ~90% of vessels targeting tuna in WCPO <5GT
gap in data!
