The Sustainable Fisheries Solutions & Retrieval Support Contribution Program encourages Canadians to take actions to reduce plastic in the marine environment through several streams of action.
Eligible activities under the program will be considered from applicants active in, or proposing work associated with research, development, management, conservation, harvesting, protection or promotion of fisheries and oceans resources and related issues. These include activities aimed at improving fisheries management and sustainability, preventing and mitigating marine litter, and activities designed to prevent and mitigate ghost fishing and the occurrence of abandoned, lost and otherwise discarded fishing gear. Proposed activities must align with one or more of the following four pillars: abandoned, lost or otherwise discarded fishing gear (ALDFG) retrieval; responsible disposal; acquisition and piloting of currently available innovative gear technology; international leadership.
