By raising awareness and actively advocating for the implementation of the Geneva Declaration on Human Rights at Sea, we aim to better protect the rights of millions of people living, working and travelling across the world's seas and oceans.

We work with the UN, governments, industry leaders, and other NGOs to create more effective laws and policies that safeguard the rights and well-being of all people at sea globally.
