Born from the strategic alliance between I4OA and Amarea, AMAREA Ecosystems is a technical unit dedicated to mitigating the ecological impacts of fishing. We operate at the intersection of applied science and participatory conservation, working to reduce bycatch and reverse biodiversity loss.

Our expertise spans the full mitigation hierarchy: from the design of robust monitoring protocols for vulnerable species interactions, to the deployment of effective mitigation measures and the delivery of specialized education programs. AMAREA Ecosystems provides the technical solutions needed to safeguard marine life while enabling responsible fishing practices.
