Sea-Watch e.V

OUR REMIT/MISSION Not inactively watching people die in the Mediterranean Sea that has always been and still is the central motivation of all Sea-Watch-activists. Sea-Watch e.V. is a non-profit initiative, who has devoted itself to civil sea rescue. In light of the humanitarian catastrophe, Sea-Watch provides emergency aid, where governmental bodies fail to do so. Additionally, we demand and push European institutions to take on their responsibility for sea rescue and ask for legal escape routes/passages. Despite being exposed to increasing criminalisation and repression by various EU-states, we continuously develop new action plans and implement new strategies. Sea-Watch is politically and religiously independent and solely financed by donations. MISSION & VISION 1. RESCUE LIVES Since 2015 Sea-Watch-activists have been involved in rescuing over 38.000 people. Our volunteers act fast, calm and professionally. Every single rescued life is a success and a sign of humanity....
