The Indonesia Ocean Justice Initiative (IOJI) considers illegal fishing and threats to sovereign rights as key challenges to the development of Indonesia’s sustainable ocean economy. As stated in the Indonesia Marine Policy Track Record 2021 & Projection 2022 report published by IOJI, these threats potentially hamper national efforts to provide effective protection to biodiversity, critical habitats and restore ocean health. A healthy and well-protected ocean is a prerequisite for the sustainable production of the ocean and equitable prosperity.
