— ABOUT AFRICA—

In  September 2020, WFO expanded its activities and launched WFO Africa.​

Waste Free Oceans Africa aims to raise awareness of the harmful effects of plastic waste pollution through educational initiatives and clean-up events across the continent. The objective is not only tackling waste, but also instilling a sense of respect and responsibility towards the environment.

​

On a bigger scale, WFO Africa aims to develop a funding proposal with local organisations for a project that will have a significant positive impact on local communities and support local economies. WFO Africa intends to develop plastic recycling facilities to support a circular economy all over Africa.
