Antarctic Marine Living Resources

The Antarctic Marine Living Resources (AMLR) is an international program that manages and conserves the ocean's living creatures around Antarctica, such as fish, krill, and whales. Its goal is to ensure these species are harvested sustainably, preventing overfishing and environmental damage. AMLR conducts scientific research to understand the ecosystems and helps create rules for fishing and protecting marine life. Established under the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR), it promotes responsible use of the region’s resources while maintaining the health of its delicate marine environment.
