WoDEF 2022

The WoDEF - World Day for the End of Fishing calls for the abolition of fishing and aquaculture farms. Fish, crustaceans and cephalopods are at the heart of WoDEF's concerns, since they constitute the biggest proportion of animals killed by humans, amounting to thousands of billions of victims each year.

Launched in 2017 in Switzerland by the association PEA - Pour l'Égalité Animale, the WoDEF is now used by associations all around the world to raise awareness about aquatic life, among the public as well as within other animal-rights associations. Read the WoDEF's demands in detail.
