Program information

Travel to Fiji and learn about the issues faced by fisheries, such as bycatch, overfishing and fishery economics, and how different kinds of fishing (small-scale, mechanised and industrial) are impacting the health of our oceans, specifically in Fiji. You will collect specific data by underwater monitoring of fish populations and documenting fish catches at fish landing sites. You will also analyse and interpret data around sustainable fishing. This helps to ensure our oceans are sustainably harvested and fisheries and fishing communities flourish.

Included in your program, at no extra cost.
