SeaWeb Seafood Champions Awards

About

The SeaWeb Seafood Champion Awards recognize individuals and organizations for their outstanding contributions to seafood sustainability and ocean conservation. Established in 2006, these awards are presented annually at the SeaWeb Seafood Summit, a global event that brings together leaders in the seafood industry. The awards focus on four key categories: Leadership, Innovation, Vision, and Advocacy. Nominations are open to those from various sectors, including fishing, aquaculture, seafood supply, conservation, and academia. Winners are selected from a pool of finalists by a panel of experts, highlighting their dedication to promoting environmentally responsible seafood practices. Past winners have included leaders in sustainable seafood sourcing, innovators in vessel tracking technology, and advocates for human rights in the fishing industry. The awards serve as a platform to inspire change and recognize efforts that protect ocean resources and support communities dependent on them. They celebrate not only achievements but also the passion and creativity that drive sustainable seafood practices forward.
