We are proud to announce the Fisheries and Ocean Development Partners Forum 2026 – a high-level platform bringing together the Ministry of Fisheries and Ocean Resources (MFOR) with our valued partners from across the globe.⁣

This milestone event is about more than just dialogue; it’s about action.

Our goal is to strengthen the partnerships that are vital to sustainable ocean management. We will celebrate our collective achievements, address current challenges, and—most importantly—secure concrete commitments and pledges to develop critical fisheries infrastructure that will enhance service delivery and operational efficiency for generations to come.⁣

To our donor countries, fishing industry stakeholders, private sector, and regional organizations: your support has been instrumental. Now, we invite you to join us at the Forum to explore new areas of cooperation, align our priorities, and reinforce our shared commitment to the sustainable development of Kiribati’s fisheries.⁣

Together, we can ensure the long-term health and prosperity of our ocean resources. Stay tuned for more updates!⁣
