Sustainability

Given the climate crisis, all sectors must make choices that serve people and planet well into the future. The establishment of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015 shifted the global debates on these issues particularly recognizing that sustainability as a critical lens must be applied not only by public and not-for-profit sectors, but also by philanthropy and private sector.

Marine conservation and sustainable fisheries require diversified funding sources to align with Sustainable Development Goals. This study examined seven Fisheries Improvement Projects (FIPs) and seven community marine reserves in Mexico, spanning 60 months.
