The Technical Committee is our technical body and is composed of 14 to 21 members, who are elected every three years by the Advisory Board through CV analysis (upon request or spontaneously received). Technical Committee representatives come from all the continents and the following areas of activity: Seafood Industry, Distribution/Retail, Government, Certification Bodies, NGOs, Educational and Media.
Operating in total independence from Friend of the Sea, the Technical Committee has a key role in the development and revision of our seafood standards and collaborates by sending comments and voting on the content of our seafood standards.
