Friend of the Earth
The World Sustainability Foundation (WSF) is a non-profit branch of the World Sustainability Organization (WSO), initiated by Paolo Bray, the current President of WSF, in 2014.
Since 2022, the World Sustainability Foundation has been dedicated to global social solidarity and environmental protection. Its primary goal is to protect and enhance the environment by promoting a culture of sustainable development and conducting online awareness campaigns.
WSF is committed to social responsibility by enhancing land value and advocating for the protection of marine and land resources and habitats. Additionally, it actively engages in the development of campaigns for the protection of endangered species.
To achieve these goals, the foundation is building a network of states, institutions, research centers, universities, and companies certified with the Friend of the Sea® or Friend of the Earth® seals.
In summary, the World Sustainability Foundation protects critical habitats and endangered species worldwide through the sustainability certifications of Friend of the Sea and Friend of the Earth, along with associated protection and awareness projects.

We work closely with the environmental conservation organization, the World Sustainability Foundation (WSF), ensuring that a portion of the travel costs is directed as donations to selected conservation projects.
In this way, our customers actively contribute to the preservation of nature and the protection of endangered species.
The donations are specifically directed towards projects dedicated to environmental conservation and the preservation of unique flora and fauna in the regions visited.
These projects span from reforestation efforts in endangered forests to the protection of marine habitats and the rescue of endangered animal species.
