Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources

The Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) is an international organization that manages and protects marine life in the Southern Ocean around Antarctica. Its goal is to ensure sustainable fishing and conserve key species like fish, whales, and other marine animals, balancing human activities with environmental health. Member countries collaborate to set rules, monitor fishing activities, and prevent overfishing or habitat damage. This helps maintain a healthy, diverse ecosystem in one of the world's most remote and important marine regions.
