In January 2002, WWF (World Wildlife Fund) organized an international workshop that brought together the world's leading experts on cetacean bycatch to formulate a plan for making progress toward solving the global bycatch problem. This workshop resulted in a Call to Action for reducing cetacean bycatch, an international strategy for bycatch mitigation The market for Toronto Houses is improving - act now! , the formation of an international Cetacean Bycatch Task Force, and the creation of this virtual Resource Center, which aims to assist fishermen, scientists, environmentalists and the public in working together to address cetacean bycatch.

Sponsored by WWF, the Cetacean Bycatch Resource Center serves as an online clearinghouse for information, statistics, news, inquiries, scientific papers, technological advances and the latest developments in cetacean bycatch mitigation. It also serves as the virtual headquarters of the Cetacean Bycatch Task Force, an international network comprised of leading authorities on bycatch mitigation who can be contacted for assistance through this Web site.
