Our members

Membership in the Coalition for Fisheries Transparency represents civil society organizations’ endorsement of the Global Charter for Fisheries Transparency, demonstrating their commitment to advancing transparency in the fisheries sector. The Coalition supports members around the world in their advocacy efforts and provides opportunities for collaboration on joint initiatives. However, membership does not obligate members to support all Coalition activities, and actions taken or endorsements made by the Coalition do not necessarily reflect the views of individual members.
