About

Sea Shepherd Belgium is a non-governmental organisation based in Londerzeel, Belgium working on nature & wildlife conservation, animal welfare, environment & climate.

Sea Shepherd Belgium is the Belgian branch of the international marine conservation organisation Sea Shepherd.

Its national campaigns in Belgium have focused on banning gillnets and trammel nets that drown porpoises and seals, and it recruits volunteers for onshore and sea-based work and accepts donations and legacies.
