We believe
in healthy seas
and a healthy future, freed from plastic.

Common Seas is on a mission to stop the flow of plastic pollution, to protect our ocean, our health and our future.


We are expert collaborative partners, driving systemic change with commitment and a courageous spirit, to protect our ocean, our health, and our future.

Our programmes are centred on:

Leading policy changes through partnerships with governments, providing technical expertise and convening the right stakeholders for action.

Commissioning research and raising awareness of the human health impacts of plastics to inspire and motivate change.

Empowering and equipping children, through their schools, to stop the flow of plastic pollution.

We work with countries that are most affected by plastic, particularly SIDS and developing coastal economies, supporting a just transition to a future freed from plastic pollution.
