A Filipina researcher and advocate of sustainable fishing practices from the University of the Philippines Diliman College of Science's Marine Science Institute (UPD-CS MSI) has committed efforts and works closely with small-scale fishers and government agencies to assist rural fisherfolk with technologies developed by UP scientists. "To ensure the sustainable utilization and management of ocean resources, it is critical that observational, monitoring and decision-support tools are in place to provide concrete, science-based information and management," UPD-CS MSI researcher Dr. Aletta Concepcion T. Yñiguez said in an iStories webinar, hosted by the UPD-CS.
