This COP15 side event will explain why traceability is a profitable investment for the seafood supply chain, and propose that the funding for such investment could be partially covered by the re-routing of harmful fishery subsidies.
The session will address:
- How and why corporates should implement traceability systems across supply chains where it is already feasible to do so.
- How governments could ensure that more seafood supply chains are traceable by relocating so-called harmful fishery subsidies towards incentives supporting traceability investments, and by introducing comprehensive traceability-related regulation?
Speakers include:
- John Willis, Director of Research, Planet Tracker;
- Dr Helena Wright, Policy Director, the FAIRR Initiative;
- Clinton Adas, Global Stewardship Lead for Biodiversity, HSBC Asset Management.
