The goal of the International Council for the Exploration of the Seas/ Intergovernmental Ocean-ographic Commission/ International Maritime Organization Working Group on Ballast and Other Ship Vectors (ICES/IOC/IMO WGBOSV) is to provide scientific support to the develop-ment of international measures aimed at reducing the risk of transporting non-native species via shipping activities. This report summarizes the key findings and outcomes in 2019–2021. A notable product of the group’s work is a comprehensive review paper examining spatial and temporal trends in the transport of aquatic, non-native species over a 50-year period.
