Feeble enforcement: Weak fishing rules fuel overfishing, inequality in coastal areas
Excerpt
Illegal and unregulated fishing continues to undermine marine biodiversity and deepen social and economic disparities in Philippine coastal communities due to weak regulatory enforcement and poor fisher registration. This was the central issue tackled during the symposium “Shaping APEC’s Blue Economy Agenda: Philippine Leadership and Visayas-Centric Innovations,” hosted by the Philippine APEC Study Center Network of the Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS), in collaboration with the University of San Carlos.
