Join us for an illuminating conversation on the future of our oceans, as we dive deep into the world of sustainable marine fisheries—what it means, why it matters, and how it connects to our everyday choices.

This session features PasarFish, a Singapore-based education, outreach, and research organization dedicated to preserving the country’s rich seafood heritage. Their work shines a spotlight on the importance of traceability, sustainable sourcing, and community engagement across the seafood supply chain. Attendees will gain a deeper appreciation of Singapore’s unique relationship with the sea and how local stories and practices can shape a more sustainable seafood culture.

We’ll also hear from Clement Ng, a PhD researcher whose work uncovers the past and present drivers of marine fish populations in tropical waters. Clement will share findings from his research that explore how fishing pressure, environmental change, and policy decisions have shaped tropical fisheries—and what lessons we can learn to build resilience for the future.

​

​Whether you’re a seafood lover, sustainability advocate, educator, or just curious about the story behind your plate, this conversation will spark new perspectives on how we can care for our oceans while honoring our traditions.
