Sustaining Our Blue Economy: Solutions for Oceans & Fisheries

Securing the Future of Marine Ecosystems, Coastal Economies & Sustainable Seafood

From warming waters to shifting migratory patterns, global fisheries and ocean ecosystems face compounding climate, economic, and governance challenges. Coastal communities, seafood supply chains, and marine biodiversity are increasingly at risk—threatening livelihoods, food security, and environmental balance.

Public and private stakeholders must rethink ocean management—shifting from extraction to regeneration, from short-term gains to long-term resilience.

Council Fire helps drive that transformation—by building strategies that protect ecosystems, support economic vitality, and empower frontline communities.

We work with government agencies, non-profits, research institutions, and fishing companies to co-create sustainable ocean and fisheries strategies that are actionable, measurable, and equity-driven.
