Description
Some Pacific Island Nations are facing a decline in tuna harvest, by 20 per cent on average, by 2050 - with experts warning climate-related fish migration could pose a looming threat to food security and economies across the region. In Solomon Islands, more than 90 per cent of inshore coastal areas fall under customary marine tenure - casting community-led solutions as vital to the sustainability of local fishing grounds. And this feature was produced with support from the Pulitzer Centre.
