Fishmongers sit next to boats as they prepare freshly caught fish to be smoked on Limbe beach, Cameroon, on April 12, 2022. In recent years, Cameroon has emerged as one of several go-to countries for the widely criticized “flags of convenience” system, under which foreign companies can register their ships even though there is no link between the vessel and the nation whose flag it flies. But experts say weak oversight and enforcement of fishing fleets undermines global attempts to sustainably manage fisheries and threatens the livelihoods of millions of people in regions like West Africa.
