Practical Guide for Sustainable Fisheries Management
Clear tools and specific steps to address legal and administrative challenges in Mexican fisheries.

This toolkit aims to empower the fishing sector to engage in responsible management, contributing to the building of communities committed to marine conservation and the sustainable use of resources.
