The Catch @ UNGA79
Over the years, there has been a concerted effort to protect endangered species and ocean ecosystems from threats such as climate change, illegal fishing, and other forces. A key initiative, the establishment of marine protected areas, requires a delicate balance between the interests of ocean conservationists and local communities.

How have similar competing priorities been addressed successfully in different regions? Moreover, how can marine protected areas promote food security and justice for coastal communities?
