Summary

Aage V. Jensen Charity Foundation is worth a targeted expression of interest, particularly for projects in Ghana, Kenya, or Indonesia where plastic waste removal directly protects coastal marine biodiversity — coral reefs, mangroves, seagrass beds. The application must be framed around ecosystem protection and biodiversity rather than recycling business models. The foundation excludes commercial endeavours. Consider framing a joint nature conservation + plastic collection project with a local NGO partner who has deep ecological monitoring capacity. Email-based application is low-barrier.
