ABOUT US
For the past six years, we've immersed ourselves in seaside communities from Mexico to India experiencing climate change, marine degradation, and overdevelopment. We've seen the remarkable, the tragic, and the auspicious through the eyes of local youth in fishing villages on the verge of collapse. We believe in the power of stories as a bridge to reach people and emotionally connect. Beyond the facts, we provide a pathway for the faces, names, and characters who depend on the ocean the most for their survival to share their side of the story before it's too late.
WHY?
Active, vibrant coastal communities indicate a thriving ocean. Without healthy seas, the planet cannot support life on Earth. Today, seaside villages are collapsing under unprecedented global and local stressors. Our goal is to address the ocean’s collapse by humanizing the issue, enabling neglected voices to join the conversation and speak up for their human rights, cultural heritage, and indispensable relationship with our oceans.
