This study builds upon the March 2014 WWF Emerging Technologies Workshop which held a goal to
help FFA Member countries better understand the existing MCS environment and objectively review and
assess available emerging technologies that might help to contribute to less expensive, more effective and

evolving technologies that could assist in addressing the challenges of fisheries MCS in the Western and
Central Pacific Ocean region.
