  abstract = {{M}any {P}acific countries and territories embrace an officially recognized 'ridge-to-reef' approach to environmental management. {T}his is the case of {F}iji, where the {L}au {S}eascape {S}trategy 2018-2030, led by {C}onservation {I}nternational, aims for integrated natural resource management across 335 895 km(2). {T}his area includes {C}icia {I}sland, which deserves particular attention since, years before the design of the {L}au {S}eascape {S}trategy, its population developed its own informal ridge-to-reef scheme, involving a combination of certified organic agriculture and locally managed marine closures. {B}ased on 1 month of ethnographic fieldwork, this paper presents this scheme and highlights local perception and conceptualization of its positive effects on both the land and the sea. {T}hese reflect the i{T}aukei ({I}ndigenous {F}ijian) concept of vanua, which intrinsically connects the health of the land, the sea, and their (human and non-human) dwellers, while stressing the importance of addressing land-sea processes and management efforts beyond an ecological perspective, i.e. through an engagement with the i{T}aukei relational ontology.},
