The territory's fishing communities, who depend on healthy fisheries for their livelihoods, are being impacted by the resulting decline in fish stocks. The fisheries management reform funding opportunity is critical for Puerto Rico as it supports science-based management practices that help to promote sustainable fishing. Unlike neighboring Caribbean territories, Puerto Rico has a unique opportunity to develop a comprehensive fisheries management system that can serve as a model for the region. What are the readiness requirements for this funding in Puerto Rico? Applicants must demonstrate their capacity to engage with fisheries stakeholders, including fishermen, scientists, and policymakers, to develop and implement effective management plans.
