About Our
Organization
In March of 2019 Atlantic Healthy Oceans Initiative was born. Its mission is to collaborate with interested organizations, agencies, governments and members of the public to protect the long-term health of our oceans while promoting innovative ways to grow sustainable coastal communities in western NL.
Our Programs
AHOI works closely with businesses, town councils, Government organizations, other NGOs, and community members to tackle plastic pollution by offering programs that help raise awareness about the impacts of plastic pollution and promote and support ways to successfully eliminate it. In turn, AHOI is building capacity at the community level, aiding in the transition away from single-use plastics, and making the Gros Morne Region a leader in the circular economy!
