The Pacific handbook for human rights (HR), gender equity and social inclusion (GESI) in tuna industries is an illustratively tailored guide designed to assist fisheries practitioners in national agencies, the private sector, training institutions or civil society organisations to better understand and apply HR/GESI lenses with the prosperous vision of an inclusive, equitable and socio-economically thriving Pacific tuna industry. The handbook consists of nine standalone modules that cover a wide range of thematic areas across the whole tuna industry from the sea to the shore to the overlapping nature with small-scale tuna fisheries and connected social impacts on communities, the science and management sphere and the importance of HR/GESI in stakeholder engagement processes.

The tuna fisheries assessment report (commonly referred to as the "TFAR") provides current information on the tuna fisheries of the western and central Pacific Ocean and the fish stocks (mainly tuna) that are impacted by them. The information provided in this report is summary in nature, but a list of references (mostly accessible via the internet) is included for those seeking further details. This report focuses on the primary tuna stocks targeted by the main Western and Central Pacific Ocean industrial fisheries - skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis), yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares), bigeye tuna (T. obesus) and South Pacific albacore tuna (T. alalunga).
