The Fisheries Transparency Initiative (FiTI) is expanding its membership and is looking for seven new International Board members who are passionate about shaping the global agenda for transparency and multi-stakeholder participation in fisheries management.

The FiTI has been established as a collaborative effort among different stakeholders from governments, business, and civil society. Their diverse interests, positions, experiences, and resources are fundamental for contributing to sustainable marine fisheries.

Membership to the FiTI is open to any individual nominated by an entity from the government, business, or social sector, interested in enhancing transparency and multi-stakeholder participation in fisheries, good ocean governance, or wider areas of open government and access to information.

The sole responsibility of members is to serve in the FiTI International Board, the global supervisory body of the FiTI.

The term for newly elected members will be three years, from 1 January 2022 until 31 December 2024.

Application documents must be submitted to the FiTI International Secretariat by the 31st of August 2021.
