AIDCP: Agreement on the International Dolphin Conservation Program

The Agreement on the International Dolphin Conservation Program (AIDCP) is a binding multilateral agreement which entered into force in February 1999, replacing an earlier agreement (known as the "La Jolla Agreement"). Parties have agreed to reduce dolphin mortalities in the tuna fisheries within the area of the IATTC convention. The IATTC provides the Secretariat for the AIDCP.
