Pacific Islands Forum Fisheries Agency (FFA)

The Pacific Island Forum Fisheries Agency has 17 members, including many small island developing states. FFA members, with varying levels of development and other cultural and social differences, exercise their common concern for the state of tuna stocks in the region through membership of FFA. As members, they shape the policy direction of fisheries management, control and development across the region and recieve expertise and support to manage tuna within their own waters.
