Good intentions don't automatically create good welfare outcomes.
Most organisations know where they want to go. The harder question is knowing what needs to be strengthened first.
AAWRI provides an evidence-based way to examine organisational readiness across eight critical domains, helping organisations understand their strengths, identify gaps and prioritise where to focus next.
01
Leadership, governance & organisational commitment
02
Staff capacity
03
Programme design
04
Field implementation
05
Partnerships & collaboration
06
Monitoring, evaluation & learning
07
Knowledge sharing & advocacy
08
Sustainability & scale
Does the organisation have the leadership, people, systems and partnerships required to operate effectively?
Does its organisational foundation translate into technically sound aquatic animal welfare practice?
Can the organisation demonstrate that its policies, programmes and interventions are actually working?
AAWRI asks a harder question.
Having policies, plans and systems is only the starting point.
The real measure of readiness is whether they translate into effective action and demonstrably better aquatic animal welfare..
POLICY → PRACTICE
Do you have a welfare policy?
Can you demonstrate that it translates into better welfare practice?


INTENTION → IMPLEMENTATION
Do you have a plan for improving aquatic animal welfare?
Can you demonstrate that the plan is being implemented effectively?
KNOWLEDGE → EVIDENCE
Do you know what good welfare looks like for the species you work with?
Can you demonstrate that your programmes use appropriate welfare indicators and evidence?


SYSTEMS → ACTION
Do you have procedures for identifying poor welfare?
Can you demonstrate that problems are identified, addressed and followed through with corrective action?
ORGANISATIONAL CAPACITY → ANIMAL WELFARE
Is your organisation equipped to deliver its programmes in a sustainable and impactful way?
Does that organisational capacity translate into technically sound aquatic animal welfare practice?

AAWRI doesn't assume that every organisation does the same work.
Technical criteria are assessed according to the programmes an organisation actually delivers.
