Indian Ocean : Scientific launch of the BRIDGES program
The Southwest Indian Ocean is a reservoir of biodiversity, with a wide variety of environments that are home to exceptional biodiversity. In this region, artisanal fisheries play a vital role in food security, employment and the economic development of local communities. However, this area is one of the most exposed and vulnerable to climate change and the intensification of human activities, such as fishing. The socio-ecosystems of this region are therefore strongly impacted by these pressures, making it essential to develop innovative solutions to strengthen their resilience and ensure sustainable and equitable fisheries.
