We value the engagement of all trawl fishers and others and we ask that individuals abide by the following network engagement principles:

• The Network is an independent and apolitical source of information
• The Network is a safe space for everyone to express their thoughts and ideas consistent with the mission of the Network

• Individuals are respectful of differing opinions and perspectives, and accept that such differences are equally valid and an important contribution to the Network

• Network content is inspiring, evidence-based, solution focused, and disruptive of the status quo, and yet consistent with the achievement of sustainable development outcomes

• The Network recognise the three core elements of sustainable development, economic growth, social inclusion and equality, and environmental protection, and the equality of all three elements
