In the Pacific, the ocean is home. It connects social and cultural life, while providing key resources such as food and economic benefits, as well as connecting infrastructure and leisure opportunities.

The Pacific’s richness in culturally enshrined lifestyles, its vast diversity of Polynesian, Micronesian and Melanesian traditions and its co-existence with the marine environment and its natural resources make this region particularly fascinating when working on gender, social inclusion (GSI) and human rights in the fisheries sector.

The Pacific Community (SPC), in partnership with the European Union (EU) has launched a series of animated videos targeting fishers, schools and the general public with the objective of raising awareness on sustainable fishing practices.
