Promote Sustainable Fishing and Uses of Marine Resources

"Driving responsible resource use and economic resilience"

The development of the Blue Economy in Timor-Leste is guided by promoting circular economic models, responsible marine tourism, and sustainable resource use. Simultaneously, support is provided for the transition to ethical fishing methods and technologies to secure stable, long-term livelihoods.

“Bridging wisdom and evidence for robust decision-making”

Conservation strategies are developed by integrating rigorous scientific studies with the invaluable traditional ecological wisdom of coastal communities. This unique synergy ensures that solutions are evidence-based, culturally resonant, and highly effective for marine resource management.

“Championing effective governance and public awareness”

Efforts are focused on advocating for sound marine policies and promoting good governance to secure long-term ocean health and equity for all stakeholders. This is reinforced by sustained Public Awareness initiatives that build support for conservation and management decisions.
