Our vision
A future where all those fleeing violence, abuse, hardship and war have the right to safe passage at sea.
Our mission
Refugee Rescue offers skilled emergency assistance to migrants in distress in the Mediterranean Sea. We bear witness to human rights violations and advocate to make local authorities and intergovernmental bodies accountable for their actions.
About Refugee Rescue
Refugee Rescue is a grass-roots NGO currently operating a skilled Search and Rescue (SAR) team helping displaced people at sea reach safe shores. It was formed in 2015 by ordinary Irish citizens in response to the humanitarian crisis in the Aegean Sea when thousands of people were arriving by boat, having been displaced by war, conflict, and persecution. In Greece, our crew and volunteers saved over 15,000 people in distress. After being forced to suspend operations for 9 months, we are operating once again, now in the Mediterranean Sea and in partnership with the rescue organisation Sea-Eye. Our life-saving rescue vessel, named Mo Chara (meaning ‘my friend’ in Irish) forms a crucial part of the Sea-Eye 4 ship.
