Across our ocean, vulnerable fishers are being trafficked and trapped into an abusive system of exploitation and overwork onboard vessels fishing illegally.
Illegal seafood caught by slaves could be on supermarket shelves across the EU and US.
Illegal fishing thrives in the shadows, avoiding scrutiny by government, industry and consumers. To stop it, global fisheries must become much more transparent.
EJF's ten principles for global transparency in the fishing industry are simple, low-cost measures that can be implemented today by any country. The adoption of these ten basic principles would transform fisheries and secure legal, sustainable and ethical seafood.
Eat sustainable seafood. Demand transparency.
