The proposal was submitted to the 2024 Pacific Alliance Cooperation Fund call by the Network of Fisheries and Aquaculture Research Institutions of the Pacific Alliance (IIPA-AP Network), comprised of the Fisheries Development Institute (IFOP) (Chile); the José Benito Vives de Andréis Marine Research Institute (INVEMAR) (Colombia); the Peruvian Marine Institute (IMARPE); the Mexican Research Institute for Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture (IMIPAS); and where the Fisheries Research and Development Institute (INIDEP) (Argentina) also participates as an observer.

The proposal was conceived and developed by professionals from the IFOP Economics Section, Senior Researcher Luis Carroza L., and Head of Economic Monitoring, Camilo Torres A. This application is one of the activities committed to in the IIPA-AP Network’s 2024-2025 Work Plan.

The project, entitled “Contributing to a comprehensive view of the fishing reality by incorporating the socioeconomic dimension into the diagnostic, management, and decision-making processes in the fisheries and aquaculture sector in the Pacific Alliance countries,” aims to “identify mechanisms that incentivize and/or enhance the incorporation of the socioeconomic dimension as a key input into the decision-making process in fisheries and aquaculture in the Pacific Alliance countries.” The Pacific Alliance Cooperation Fund has allocated US$85,567 for this research project, which is projected to last 12 months.
