Bycatch is a solvable problem.

Every year, millions of marine animals — sea turtles, whales, seabirds, sharks — are unintentionally caught in fishing gear. Bycatch threatens species survival, disrupts ecosystems, and creates real risk for the seafood companies and fisheries that depend on healthy oceans.

The good news? Proven solutions exist. They just need the right partnerships and funding to scale.

How we work together

The Bycatch Solutions Hub is the only platform that directly connects conservation science with seafood industry action — aligning goals for healthier oceans and stronger fisheries.

Conservation NGOs and technology innovators bring the science and solutions. Seafood companies bring the funding and market influence. The Bycatch Solutions Hub connects them — matching projects with partners, cutting through complexity, and making collaboration simple.
