“Plastic (waste) is one of the biggest contributors to climate change,” says Shaahina Ali, Executive Director of Parley Maldives. “A household of 5 people throws away approximately 500g-1kg of plastic waste per day. ”

Under the umbrella of international NGO Parley for the Oceans, Parley Maldives works to protect our beautiful island nation and its marine ecosystems from the consequences of plastic pollution by collecting, repurposing and upcycling plastic waste.
