What We Do

Our Impact

We’ve spent the last 10 years driving change where it matters most—on the water, in communities, and across seafood supply chains—transforming fisheries into models of sustainability.

A Decade of Impact

For over ten years, Ocean Outcomes has been working at the intersection of fisheries, communities, and supply chains to prove that change is possible. What began as a small team with a bold idea has grown into a global effort to make seafood more sustainable, more transparent, and more equitable.


Our Progress to Date

Together with our partners, Ocean Outcomes has turned vision into measurable results. Our work has transformed fisheries and seafood systems.

Dive Deeper: 10-Year Impact Report

From seeding the sustainable seafood movement across Northeast Asia, advancing workers rights on board distant water fishing vessels, and catalyzing community-centered improvement work in Latin America’s small-scale fisheries, our 10 Year Impact Report is a detailed look back at the people, partnerships, and progress that have defined our first decade of success.

10 Years, 10 Stories

These videos bring our work to life. Each highlights a different story — how O2 came to be, our fisheries improvement work in action, and the voices of fishers and communities we work alongside. Watch them all to learn more about our first decade of progress and the future we’re building.

Episode 1 — 10 Years of Ocean Outcomes: Where It All Began

Founding members Perry Broderick and Rich Lincoln share the story of how Ocean Outcomes came to be: a story of purpose and the people who believed something better was possible—for oceans, seafood, and the communities that depend on both.

Episode 2 — 10 Years of Ocean Outcomes: People Behind The Work

Lasting fisheries change requires more than investments in science and policy—it also requires investments in people. Hear from founding members, current staff, and core partners on how Ocean Outcomes is working to co-design practical solutions that reflect local realities, bridge perspectives, and build trust.


Charting the Course — Together

10 years ago, a small team set out to prove that high-risk, under-resourced fisheries could become models of sustainability. Today, thanks to partners and donors like you, that proof is real. But the work ahead is urgent. Social injustices in distant-water fleets, continued pressure on marine ecosystems, and market demand for credible, transparent seafood all require practical solutions on the water.

Your support propels O2’s next decade — expanding electronic monitoring in Northeast Asia, strengthening worker training with local partners, and translating global standards into everyday practice for fishers, companies, and communities.
