Thalassains is committed to helping create a more sustainable future in the world. We will achieve that by using the power of business & collaborations to pave the path to that sustainable future.
The founder was inspired to start this business after observing an overwhelming increase in plastic stuck in the world-class coral reefs of The Red Sea in 2020. After observing the negative impact of plastics on our corals, he realized that something has to be done to preserve the Red Sea. He hired a few friends and created a purpose-driven organization concerned with guarding the sea. Now, Thalassains manages one of the largest & most consistent beach cleanup operations in Egypt & recruits 100s of volunteers & staff.
Our conservation efforts are focused on four key areas.
1. Education: We prioritize educating the local communities around the Red Sea through regular workshops, school sessions and art projects.
2. Innovation: We use a portion of the waste we collect from the Red Sea and upcycle it into stylish products sold to companies and individuals worldwide.
3. Advocate: Through our network, we are pressuring local governments to put policies in place that will reduce the negative impact of plastic on the environment.
4. Recovery: By doing regular beach cleanups, we are helping marine life flourish and inspiring behavioural change at the local level.
Join the #CLEANREDSEAMVMT and help us preserve one of the last standing coral reefs in the world.

Local and international academics, researchers and stakeholders in the private sector will interact and present their work/research.
