Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of €779,281 (approximately $831,750 at the time of conversion) over three years to Wageningen University to support work to improve the welfare of wild-caught fish. This will involve assessing the welfare impacts of different capture methods and engaging with the fishing industry and fish certifiers to promote better practices.
This follows Open Philanthropy’s March 2023 support and falls within its focus area of farm animal welfare, specifically within its interest in fish welfare.
