Research scholar Nicole Franz moderates 3rd PROBLUE Global Engagement Forum (PGEF) on Small-Scale Fisheries, Food Security and Biodiversity in the Ocean, organized jointly by the Stanford Center for Ocean Solutions and World Bank's PROBLUE program.

A new study led by Managing Director Elizabeth Selig calls for more participatory, transparent governance after finding that the majority of 1000+ ocean conflicts in Africa stemmed from disputes over access to space and resources.

The first step is to document where conflicts are occurring, who is involved, and the nature of the disputes.

Research Manager Eric Hartge and Stanford PhD Candidate Catherine Lee Hing were part of a team that completed a recent "Twinning Exchange" between the regions of Micronesia and the Caribbean to compare notes on marine spatial planning and community-based ocean governance.

Co-director Jim Leape argues that Africa has untapped potential to use blue foods to meet sustainable development challenges and to expand production through aquaculture.

PICRC Chief Researcher Ikelau Otto and researcher Maikani Mereng Andres joined scientists Collin Closek and Jeanine Brantschen from the Stanford Center for Ocean Solutions on the expedition, which is part of a continuing research collaboration that began in 2021.

Colette Wabnitz’s work highlights an overlooked reality, where millions of women support global fisheries but remain invisible in official statistics and decision-making.

Research Scholar Nicole Franz joins the In Common podcast to discuss her new book on human-centered management of fisheries in a complex world.

Jouffray and his colleagues wanted to understand what companies were disclosing to the public and their investors, and how their activities impact the ocean and the life within it.

“Managing fisheries is easier said than done," said research scholar Nicole Franz in an interview with Nutrition Insight.

"There’s huge potential in blue foods, but it really depends on how they are managed," said Engagement Project Manager Laura Anderson.

A systematic assessment of the small-scale fisheries sector co-led by Research Scholar Nicole Franz yields insights into some of its most vital contributions to humanity.

Co-director Fiorenza Micheli talks with El Mercurio about why it's essential to invest in food security and the sustainable development of seafood.

Blue Food Futures Program Manager Josheena Naggea and colleagues argue for blue carbon projects to properly value ecosystems in National Geographic Indonesia.

“This analysis provides robust evidence that protecting marine predators promotes the recovery of marine forests even in the face of prolonged marine heat waves,” said Micheli.

A new study co-authored by Nicole Franz of the Center for Ocean Solutions found that small-scale fishing could provide a significant proportion of the micronutrient intake for the 2.3 billion people on Earth who live near coastlines or inland bodies of water.

Research Data Scientist Zach Koehn talks sardines and sustainability on the podcast Outside/In.

Marine scientists and policy experts from nine international research and conservation institutions share their list of the top ocean news stories from 2024.

"Projections indicate that the entire region faces increasing risk from extreme events,” said Fiorenza Micheli.
