Aquaculture without Frontiers is an independent non-profit organisation that promotes and supports responsible and sustainable aquaculture in the alleviation of poverty by improving livelihoods in developing countries.

Aquaculture without Frontiers draws on the experience of respected professionals from every relevant discipline.

Aquaculture without Frontiers devotes all of its resources and attention to aquaculture.

Aquaculture without Frontiers encourages interaction, cooperation and linkages with other organisations.

Aquaculture without Frontiers supports aquaculture development for poverty alleviation through improving livelihoods in developing countries by:

• Promoting and introducing practical techniques for small-scale responsible aquaculture.
• Demonstrating appropriate technology for farm construction and operation, including responsible resource use and integration with other income and food generating activities.
• Assisting in product development for consumption and sale/marketing.
• Providing technical and management training for new and existing small-scale farmers, farm workers, extension workers, and agencies (including other NGOs) working to develop aquaculture.
• Increasing awareness of the importance of the aquatic environment, animal welfare, and the potential of aquaculture.
• Helping to build capacity for "seed" supply.
• Promoting the development of micro-credit schemes to support the purchase of ‘seed’, and to assist women to establish aquaculture-based activities designed to provide additional family income.
• Recognising the frequently landless state and lack of legal rights to water use of the economically poor by maximising the potential of natural productivity.
• Wherever possible, avoiding ecosystem degradation by turning eutrophication into productivity.
• Working for long-term stability, not just short-term relief.
