The EAF-Nansen Programme celebrates 50 years in 2025, marking half a century of dedicated partnership between FAO, Norway, coastal countries, and regional organizations to promote sustainable fisheries management to achieve food and nutrition security.

We adopt the budstikke as a symbol to carry key messages of events to encourage boundary-crossing between people with different knowledge and perspectives, and to call for actions from healthy waters to healthy people to include aquatic foods as a key food source for achieving food security and improving nutrition.

Science must demonstrate the comparative benefits of aquatic food systems.

Aquatic food systems science must better engage in a food systems approach.

Science must be grounded in equity and justice to be optimised effectively and sustainably.

Science must drive nutrition-focused aquatic food systems governance.

Science must drive sustainable, nutrition-sensitive, and equitable aquaculture.

International and regional cooperation is essential.

Science and evidence-based policy are fundamental to sustainable ocean governance and sustainable aquatic food systems.

Capacity building and inclusion are key to long-term sustainability.

The role of aquatic foods in nutrition and food security must be recognized and strengthened.
