To address these challenges, the project aims to beautify the town and its surrounding areas with inspiring murals that communicate the core message of "Guarding The Sea." By using art as a tool for awareness and education, the project hopes to inspire both locals and visitors to take action to protect the environment and reduce their single-use plastic usage.
Local artists will be engaged in the project, which will not only showcase their talents but also provide them with a platform to raise awareness about environmental issues. Additionally, the project plans to create digital maps that will direct visitors to the mural locations, making it easier for them to explore and appreciate the town's artistic offerings.
Each mural will have a unique QR code that tells its story and how it came to be. This provides an opportunity for visitors to learn more about the artist, the inspiration behind the mural, and the environmental message it conveys. By sharing these stories on social media, visitors can help spread the project's message and inspire others to take action.
Overall, the project is a creative and innovative approach to environmental education and awareness. By using art to communicate important messages and engage with the local community and visitors, the project hopes to create a more sustainable future for Dahab and its surrounding areas.

Education and communication for more opportunities

You can help us strengthen the value chain of our allies, the grassroots recyclers, giving priority to those centers that are led by and employ more women. In these cases, we will be able to offer better purchase prices and provide them with technical support for their own business expansion plans.
Our measure of success will be the number of people sensitized to the process and the increase in tons of plastic material for recycling that reaches our value chain. We will be able to measure this because we keep detailed control of the material received from each collection center.

#PLASTICFREEOCEANS
over 1 year agoplastic recovered
It is estimated that nowadays less tan 1.5% of this waste is recycled (The Ocean Cleanup), not only one of the most abundant plastic waste in our oceans but also the worst for marine life.
From Gravity Wave we’ve been facing up this problem in the Mediterranean Sea since 2020. First, by collaborating with both traditional fishermen and companies, we collect all kinds of plastic from the sea (including discarded fishing nets from fishing ports). In a second stage, as Gravity Wave, we are specialized in the recycling of those ghost and discarded fishing nets.
To this day, we have already achieved to create a stable recycling process to transform PE fishing nets into beautiful furniture, but we are always under continuous R&D processes that allow us to recycle both more types of nets (different types of nets, different plastics, different recycling needs) and in larger volumes.
These funds will help us to take our industrial recycling tests one step further. One step more towards one of our main purpose:
“Move those plastics and fishing nets away from our oceans and transform them into valuable raw material for the industry”.
Join the movement and support us for a #PLASTICFREEOCEANS
