As we reflect on 2025, we’re proud of the progress made by ROSA in advancing collaborative, transparent science at the intersection of fisheries, ocean development, and data governance. This year marked important milestones, including expanded regional research coordination, continued leadership in offshore fisheries data governance, new project awards across the Atlantic Coast, and deeper engagement with fishers, researchers, regulators, and developers.
Our 2025 Year in Review highlights key accomplishments, partnerships, and lessons learned — and sets the stage for the work ahead in 2026. The past year’s progress is a testament to the dedicated partners who make our work possible, and the entire ROSA team extends our appreciation to the many collaborators and supporters who helped us achieve so much.
