“Bringing fish back to water during the elections”
We have launched a new advocacy project addressing decision-makers. We want to show that fish deserve a voice from politicians.

Legislation does not protect fish, which are killed in food production. In dialogue […]

COP27 must bet on science not industry
Before the upcoming Climate Summit, we remind you of NGOs’ advocacy efforts through Climate Week NYC. „For 14 years, Climate Week NYC has gained attention as a global event to address the climate crisis.
