From 2019-2025, the Net Free Seas (NFS) project has collected and recycled over 200 tons of discarded fishing nets and gear, generating over 2.3 million baht in income for the community. The project has been implemented in 20 community centers in 8 provinces and has 13 collection centers. The project has built a network of leaders and stakeholders nationwide who are knowledgeable and ready to drive marine conservation through community activities, campaigns, marine litter collection, and working with government agencies. The project has combined community power with policy advocacy to lay the foundation for a circular economy for fishing gear waste management and serve as a model for other areas in Southeast Asia to adapt to their contexts.

Adrift: Senegal’s coastal crisis and the deadly route to Europe
Abdou and his father are separated by 1,500 km of ocean – a distance Abdou travelled in November 2020. He left Joal-Fadiouth, a fishing town in Senegal, and eventually reached Tenerife, a Spanish island off the coast of Morocco, after spending approximately fourteen days at sea in a wooden fishing boat. This route, increasingly used by people in West Africa to reach Europe, is considered one of the most deadly on Earth.
For Abdou, his loved ones, and thousands of others along Senegal’s coastline, the fishing they once depended on is no longer an option. With few alternatives, more and more people are being pushed toward life-threatening journeys, seeking opportunities elsewhere. This escalating, intersecting crisis demands urgent attention and action.

À la dérive : La crise du littoral sénégalais et la route funeste vers l'Europe
Abdou et son père sont séparés par 1 500 km d'océan - une distance qu'Abdou a parcourue en novembre 2020. Parti de Joal-Fadiouth, une ville de pêcheurs au Sénégal, il a atteint Ténériffe, une île espagnole au large du Maroc, après avoir passé environ quatorze jours en mer sur un bateau de pêche en bois. Cette route, de plus en plus empruntée par les habitants de l'Afrique de l'Ouest pour rejoindre l'Europe, est considérée comme l'une des plus meurtrières au monde.
Pour Abdou, ses proches et des milliers d'autres personnes le long de la côte sénégalaise, la pêche dont ils dépendaient autrefois n'est plus une option. Avec peu d'alternatives, de plus en plus de personnes sont poussées à entreprendre des voyages qui mettent leur vie en danger, à la recherche d'opportunités ailleurs. Cette crise qui s'aggrave et s'entrecroise exige une attention et une action urgentes.
