Room 152

Building on five years of collaborative efforts, this panel will delve into the critical evolution of vessel-level due diligence. We’ll move beyond the basics of data collection to explore how companies can effectively assess IUU fishing risks and take meaningful action in their supply chains. Drawing on lessons learned, our experts will discuss:

  • The Practicalities of Data Collection: Learn how to overcome the challenges of gathering vessel-specific information and why this is now a standard practice, not the exception. We’ll share insights on the frequency and quality of vessel data currently moving through the supply chain.
  • Actionable Risk Assessment: Discover how companies can turn raw data into valuable intelligence. This session will highlight the types of insights that can be gleaned from vessel risk assessments, from identifying potential IUU fishing to uncovering social and human rights risks.
  • Responding to Risk: The most crucial step of due diligence is taking action. We’ll provide guidance on how companies can use risk assessments to reduce their overall supply chain risk and foster collaboration with suppliers
