Today, we're announcing a leadership change at Shrimp Welfare Project.

After helping build Shrimp Welfare Project from the beginning, our co-founder Aaron Boddy is transitioning from his day-to-day role as Chief Strategy Officer to become a Board Member, and will continue supporting our long-term direction and continuity.

We’re also excited to share that Chief Programmes Officer Krzysztof Wojtas is stepping into the role of CEO, providing clear leadership as we continue to grow.

🌊 Since founding Shrimp Welfare Project in 2021, Aaron has played a central role in shaping the organization’s strategy, building key relationships and helping set up the systems that will carry us forward. We’re deeply grateful for Aaron’s leadership, and for his continued involvement through the board.

Aaron is joining Ambitious Impact to lead a new initiative of their incubation program, focused on developing high-potential animal welfare projects.

“I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve built at Shrimp Welfare Project, and grateful to everyone who’s made this work possible,” says Aaron. “I’m excited to continue supporting Shrimp Welfare Project as a board member, while launching a new endeavor to accelerate animal welfare progress.”

Krzysztof added: “Aaron’s leadership has been foundational to Shrimp Welfare Project’s growth, and I’m thankful that Aaron will remain closely involved as a board member. I’m honored to step into the CEO role and keep building on the momentum we’ve created together with an outstanding team and partners.”

🦐 We’re energized for what’s next, and grateful to our collaborators and supporters for being part of this work.

We had an excellent time at Seafood Expo Global Barcelona last week, meeting with producers, suppliers, and retailers committed to continuous innovation and improvement in shrimp farming.

Our team had thoughtful conversations with companies who want to lead on welfare and are looking for workable pathways — reinforcing how much momentum there is for partnership-led progress across the shrimp value chain. 🌊

🦐 Shrimp Welfare Project is excited to keep building collaborative projects that help the shrimp farming industry transition to humane slaughter.

We’re excited to welcome 6 new team members who are expanding the reach and impact of our work. 🦐🎉

Program Development Lead Ida Radovanovic is working with Wild-Caught Scoping Leads, Antonia Chan and Jan Gaida, to explore potential welfare interventions for the trillions of shrimps who are caught in the wild each year. China Scoping Lead Fiona Wong is researching ways we can make an impact in China, the world’s top shrimp-producing and shrimp-consuming country.

We’re also growing our Humane Slaughter Initiative by strengthening our on-the-ground presence with new Technical Field Coordinators for Asia and Latin America. Thu Nguyen, based in Vietnam, and Prisila Castro, based in Ecuador, will be working directly with producers in the adoption and implementation of higher welfare practices on farms.
