Initiatives

Main content start

We capitalize on Stanford's deep expertise in ocean science and other disciplines crucial to solving ocean problems including engineering, computer science, political science, design, and business.

Current Initiatives

  • Developing approaches and tools to support the small island developing states of the Pacific in their efforts to integrate development and conservation.
  • Working to use human-centered design approaches to identify new technologies that can help fishing communities manage their resources
  • Fostering collaboration between top researchers, conservationists, and entrepreneurs committed to solving ocean health challenges.
  • Leading an effort to accelerate action on illegal fishing and human rights violations through linked efforts on three fronts: data, supply chains, and policy.
  • Building a community of researchers investigating the many connections between oceans and the global food system.
