We advocate for Malaysia’s commitment to conserve 30% of Malaysia’s seas and coasts, for the benefit of nature, livelihoods, businesses and future generations.

All Coastal Fisheries and Aquaculture are Sustainably Managed

We facilitate efforts to improve Malaysia's fisheries, aquaculture, and consumption of food for long-term food security.

Priority Species Safeguarded and Overexploitation Reduced

We influence policy to strengthen legislation and enforcement capacity, and facilitate ground patrols with local communities, NGOs, private sectors and enforcement agencies.
