Indicator alignment

Results are mapped to FAME Business Plan 2024–2028 Objectives 1–7, the Regional Roadmap, A New Song for Coastal Fisheries, and SDG 14 (Life Below Water).

Counting convention

Each result classifies as Output, Change in knowledge / attitude / practice, or Impact. 2021 records were submitted before the typing convention was standardised.
