The NGO Shipbreaking Platform is a leading global coalition dedicated to reversing the environmental and human rights abuses caused by current shipbreaking practices. They strive to ensure the safe and environmentally sound dismantling of end-of-life ships worldwide. While ships are essential for transporting goods, they become waste when they reach the end of their operational lives.

Unfortunately, only a small fraction of ships are handled in a safe and clean manner. The majority of end-of-life ships, filled with toxic substances, are broken down by hand on the beaches of South Asia. Unscrupulous shipping companies take advantage of minimal enforcement of environmental and safety rules to maximize their profits.

This is a global issue that needs attention. The NGO Shipbreaking Platform works tirelessly to address this problem and advocate for clean and safe solutions in ship recycling. Join their cause and help make a difference
