"We have worked closely with Human Rights at Sea International since 2020 seeking to achieve justice for families of fisheries observers lost at sea, as well as helping to develop policy changes for crew human and labour rights standards across the fishing fleets of the Western and Central Pacific region. Their investigatory and consultancy work is comprehensive and objective, and it can be relied upon for high-level commercial and state-level decision making. We would recommend them to any new client."

"Human Rights at Sea International was instructed by Peter Döhle Schiffahrts-KG to undertake discreet and sensitive work in a foreign state to assist in the release of a senior crew member on a detained vessel. The subsequent human rights focused report in multiple languages assisted in a successful outcome, allowing the crew member to be repatriated after a 15-month absence from his family. We are grateful to the Human Rights at Sea International team for their professionalism."

“As a mother, I am forever thankful and grateful to the HRAS for having such a big heart and for all their assistance towards our family during a time of immense difficulty and for standing up for us when we were not able to and to be the voice of justice, truth and change on our behalf.
“Everything that the HRAS stand for and believe in have been put into action and demonstrated during our case with the primary goal, being one of transformation and change, which have indeed been achieved with great success and handled in such a manner with that of truth, integrity and care.”
