In Tema, Ghana, ISSF hosted a skippers workshop in 2025 to convene purse-seine and pole-and-line fishers with fisheries scientists. Together they discussed approaches for reducing tuna fishing’s impact on the marine ecosystem — covering FADs, bycatch mitigation, acoustic discrimination of species, and more. The workshop was supported by ISSF, FAO, GEF, and the Common Oceans Tuna Project.
