Restoring our oceans through action

CLIMATE ACTION

Climate change is a global challenge that requires actions from everyone everywhere.


We support

  • Local projects that motivate and mobilize from attitude to action.

  • Innovative projects with great potential.

Strategic priorities 2023-2026

Climate action

 
 

The ocean affects us all in positive ways. It provides climate regulation, food, jobs, livelihoods, and economic progress. Thus, we must work together to protect and save the ocean for the sake of our future survival on this planet.

We are committed to restoring our oceans through action and engagement.

We look for action-driven projects, especially for children and youth, projects that contribute to plastic free oceans, beaches and ports.

To combat climate challenges we need to reduce, reuse and recycle. We look for sustainable and innovative green solutions that will protect our environment and can make a difference for people and the planet.

 

For all projects

  • Must be anchored in the SDGs.

  • Have local ownership.

  • Make a difference for people and communities and contribute to a more compassionate society.

  • Our support must make a difference.
