- Enaleia is a social, non-profit enterprise with a vision to make the marine ecosystem
sustainable and all of our projects are aligned with three pillars: Education, Mitigation
and Prevention. - We started operating in 2016 as the first professional fishing school in Greece. Among
fishing in general, we also taught fishermen how to fish more sustainably by
implementing methods such as fishing tourism. During that time, we discovered that
fishermen also caught a significant amount of marine waste, mostly plastic, in their
nets while fishing. So we decided to do something about that. This fact initiated us to
start the Mediterranean CleanUp project. - The Mediterranean CleanUp project aspires to implement a wide-scale cleanup of
marine plastic in the Mediterranean ecosystem by utilizing the fishermen’s network.
The marine plastic collected by fishermen, as well as their used fishing equipment, are
recycled and upcycled, being integrated into the circular economy.
