Parley’s Global Cleanup Network operates worldwide, taking direct action against marine plastic pollution, developing education programs and building out upcycling infrastructure. With offices in 14 countries and counting and collaborators in many more, our teams and partners clear plastic waste from beaches, remote islands, rivers, mangroves and coral reefs — and intercept plastic waste in coastal and island communities.
Collaboration is the heart and soul of Parley. Our impact is collectively achieved with the help of many individuals, organizations and communities who share our mission to protect the oceans and work tirelessly to drive change at a local, national and global level. Our goal is to bring these groups together, to accelerate solutions and maximize impact with the strength of our collaborator network and supporters.
Parley’s teams, collaborators and volunteers share our vision for solutions and champion the Parley AIR Strategy: AVOID. INTERCEPT. REDESIGN. Going beyond simple cleanups, we respond to plastic emergencies, create education and employment opportunities and implement programs to end the cycle of pollution in the long-term.
