CLEANUP ARABIA CSR & SCHOOL ACTIVITIES

Corporate & School Team Building Activities

If you are looking to give back and want to involve your company or school in environmental team activities, we will arrange a beach clean-up for you.

We will source a beach in need of TLC in Dubai or a neighbouring Emirate. Transportation to the location must be organised by the company or school.

Take the Pledge

Make a difference!
Ocean rubbish is a serious problem that affects the health of people, wildlife, marine life and local economies. As a side mount to EDA’s annual campaign – Cleanup Arabia – we offer beach clean-up activities throughout the UAE’s cooler months between November and May.

The Ocean Conservancy

EDA is partners with the Ocean Conservancy for Cleanup Arabia’s activities. We submit the data the teams fill out onto the ICC (International Coastal Cleanup) forms provided during the clean-up to the Ocean Conservancy. The information is entered into their database to record the collections and the efforts we have made each year in the UAE. We all play a small part to make a big difference as part of this worldwide project.
