Stakeholder Engagement

 

Meaningful stakeholder engagement is at the heart of FaCeT's work. From conception to implementation, we communicate and work closely with fishery stakeholders, emphasizing trust and transparency at every stage of our project. 

Our commitment to meaningful engagement also shapes our communication strategy. We actively keep our stakeholder communities abreast of the team's findings, tools, and applications in development as well as FaCeT's future directions.

Partners and Stakeholders

FaCeT's diverse partners and stakeholders include people from across sectors. Among them are individuals from business and industry, government, nonprofit, regional fishery management organizations, and research and academia.

 

FaCeT’s tools and ecological forecasting products are designed to provide stakeholders with needed information on biological and economic responses to, and impacts of, ocean anomalies and projected climate change. 

Fueled by satellite data, climate models, fishery-independent and -dependent biological data, and vessel tracking data, FaCeT bridges the gap between management and climate science to provide critical applications that support climate readiness and ocean resilience.
