We combine cutting-edge welfare research with establishing trusted partnerships across industry and policy to lead the global movement for aquatic animals. Our work focuses on three spheres of influence – public and civil society, guiding bodies and lawmakers, and market actors – so that culture, rules, and purchasing power move in tandem.

Our programs work to shape public perception, influence the decision-making of global entities like the United Nations (UN), European Commission, major certification bodies, and corporations, and establish aquatic animal welfare as an essential, non-negotiable dimension of how the world defines responsible food systems.

Market Actors

Public and Civil Society




Public and Civil Society

We elevate aquatic welfare in public discourse and allied movements, equipping advocates and consumers with credible evidence and stories.

Market Actors

We insert welfare into international and national policy texts, technical guidance, and consultation processes, creating legal hooks and regulatory pathways.

Governing Bodies and Lawnmakers

We embed welfare in procurement and certification, where expectations become purchasing power.
