Stories hold immense power — they capture not just milestones and successes, but the spirit, struggles, and hopes behind every endeavor.

We proudly present “Stories of the Seas,” a documentary film of the FISH Visayas Project Phase II. This film brings to life the voices of our coastal communities, showcasing the true impact of collaboration, resilience, and sustainable development made possible through the FISH Visayas.
