Earlier this year, Global Fishing Watch data helped expose illegal fishing in Revillagigedo National Park 🌊
By tracking vessel movements, even fishing boats that “go dark” can be held accountable. Public satellite data is strengthening protections for marine sanctuaries.

As the year closes, one message stands out: ocean protection must move from pledges to action.
Earlier this year, @donabertarelli.bsky.social spoke with @devex.com about why transparency and enforcement matter — and how Marine Manager helps turn data into accountability.

Peru’s artisanal sector is huge 77,000 fishers, 300+ species and communities that depend on them. But their stories aren’t always heard.
We spoke with 30+ fishers last week about the challenges they face and how transparency can help.

Despite this, nearly half of IUU-listed fishing vessels still get insurance.
