| Summary |
As one of the world's largest economies and importers of seafood, the United States has outsized influence in ending IUU fishing and the use of forced labor by seafood companies in their business operations and supply chains. Over the past 10 years, the United States has adopted new programs and approaches to combat IUU fishing for conservation purposes; these efforts have produced valuable data and lessons learned that can support U.S. government efforts to end forced labor in the seafood industry and beyond, and specifically to prevent goods produced with forced labor from entering U.S. markets |
