Greetings from Shrimp Welfare Project! We're excited to share some major momentum in March! First, we’re thrilled to celebrate Waitrose’s commitment to 100% humane slaughter for warm-water shrimps by 2026, eliminating practices like eyestalk ablation. SWP has been proud to support this transformation, working alongside Waitrose’s suppliers to make electrical stunning the new industry standard—a landmark victory that sets the stage for other retailers to follow. Additionally, we’re excited to welcome Robin Goist as our new Communications Lead, bringing over a decade of experience in journalism and public relations to amplify SWP’s mission. As the outgoing Comms Lead, this will be my last newsletter, but I will still be at SWP as the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) Officer. Finally, we would like to congratulate Sri Rang K, India Program Coordinator at SWP, on his third work anniversary! Have a great week! Léa | MEL Officer
