The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Central Luzon and the United States Agency for International Development recently conducted a Training of Trainers on the Philippine Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing Index and Threat Assessment Tool at this premier Freeport. The workshop — through the BFAR’s Fisheries Management and Regulatory Enforcement Division and USAID’s FishRight Program — is geared to the region’s law enforcement personnel, municipal agriculturists, provincial and local government unit fisheries officers and technicians and academicians who actively worked together to evaluate IUU fishing activities in their respective areas of jurisdiction.
