With the help of traditional and large-scale fishers, the project consists of testing net prototypes that reduce the negative effects of trawling on marine biodiversity while still catching shrimp. [The] project's [goal] is to address the negative impacts of shrimp trawling while considering ecological well-being, economic growth, and food security. Therefore, while those involved in the project are working to decrease the number of discarded sea creatures, they are also trying to put a commercial and/or food value on all creatures that are caught.
