In 2017, we asked ourselves a question: how do you transform Mexico's fisheries system to make it truly sustainable — environmentally, socially, and economically?
The answer was not found in isolated projects. It was found by bringing together, for the first time, all the links in the chain: fishing communities, the productive sector, government, academia, businesses, and civil society — at the same table, with a shared agenda and genuine willingness to act.
This is how ICPMX was born under the Collective Impact model: multisectoral collaboration, shared objectives, and coordinated action to address problems no single person can solve alone.

THREE LEVERS FOR CHANGE
We envision a highly competitive and sustainable fishing and aquaculture sector in which every element of the value chain is strengthened, fishing communities are prosperous and resilient, and the Mexican population chooses domestic, legal, quality products. A sector that contributes to the country's food security and is a global reference for its organization and responsible use of marine resources.
We coordinate efforts among communities, civil society, the private sector, and government to promote sustainable, competitive, and inclusive fishing and aquaculture in Mexico, strengthening governance, markets, social wellbeing, and the responsible use of marine resources.
