Illegal Activities in Small-scale Fisheries
ACS and Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile are working to understand the dynamics of illegal fishing in Chile. Working with SERNAPESCA, Chile’s fisheries management agency, we are using survey instruments and expert elicitation approaches to help build a holistic understanding of the various types of activities connected to illegal fishing. Our current efforts are focused on exploring which seafood species are most involved with illegal activities, along with the different types of illegality and their organizational structure.
