The Kanan Kay Alliance (AKK, in Spanish) supported the management of 14 No take Zones (NTZs) in fishing areas, which cover nearly 50,000 hectares of protected marine ecosystems. Coastal communities in the Yucatán Peninsula define and monitor these areas to regulate fishing and help increase fish populations. AKK promotes collaborative management and equity among its 37 members, enabling communities to better address declining fishery resources. As part of its community governance, marine conservation, and sustainable development actions, it hosted talks, workshops, events, monitoring activities, exchanges, and training sessions that involved more than 1,000 participants. It also made progress in the creation of a new NTZ in the Santuario del Manatí State Reserve, encouraging community participation. At both the national and international levels, AKK engaged in key forums to promote an inclusive and resilient model for fisheries management.
