THE PROBLEM

With diminishment of species in the oceans comes diminishment of the quality of life for humanity. The causes of this imminent threat to our collective survival is rooted in human action - the over-consumption of resources that bring chemical, oil, noise and plastic pollution to our oceans. Some scientists forecast a collapse of all commercial fisheries by the year 2048, with all coral reef ecosystems in the world collapsing by 2025.

THE SOLUTION

Parley for the Oceans addresses major threats towards our oceans. They believe the power for change lies in the hands of the consumer, with creative industries holding power to shape a new consumer mindset. Artists, musicians, actors, filmmakers, fashion designers, journalists, architects, product inventors, and scientists have the tools to mold the reality we live in and to develop alternative business models and ecologically sensible products to give consumers an alternative choice, an everyday option to change something.

Parley seeks to synchronize the economic system of humankind with the ecosystem of nature, to make environmental protection fiscally lucrative for pacesetting major companies.

Parley Talk

Everything starts with inspiration. Therefore every Parley is a curated gathering with a dedicated topic, presented by Parley Speakers to a carefully selected audience. The talks are meant to give an overview of the State of the Oceans in general, to present a specific cause, and to get the support for a related initiative or project.

Collaboration Session

Once there is serious interest to support the cause and to start a collaboration or to join an already existing project or initiative, the Parley team will help to get the process going by developing an individual idea or concept, connecting to potential partners, and moderating the collaboration process from idea to finalization of an agreement.

Collaborative Project

The signature on an agreement is the kick-off for the actual collaboration process. The Parley team supports the collaborators by translating needs and ideas to each partner, managing expectations and keeping the partners on track with a realistic roadmap.
