The U.S. Department of State’s partnership with Fish 2.0 will foster the growth of businesses and investment in the Pacific Islands, facilitate diaspora mentoring connections, and support the development of sustainable fisheries, technologies, and supply chains to protect the global ocean. Workshops in Pohnpei, Micronesia in February and in Nadi, Fiji in March will provide hands on training and support for businesses and investors. The U.S. Department of State’s support to Fish 2.0 builds on ongoing initiatives and new commitments announced at the June 2014 Our Ocean Conference, and reinforces the Department’s commitment to working with diaspora communities to power development through the IdEA partnership.
