Supporter Spotlight: Heather Stevens, Ensuring the Future of Ocean Livelihoods

Heather Stevens is a key supporter of ocean conservation through her work with Oceana. After learning about threats to oceans, including overfishing, she joined the Board of Directors of Oceana and helped shape campaigns to combat illegal fishing. Stevens used her insurance expertise to push major companies to improve their screening of fishing operations. One successful project is Global Fishing Watch, which uses satellite technology to reveal illegal fishing activities, helping protect local fishermen’s livelihoods, especially in vulnerable areas like Senegal.
