HOW ACE STARTED 

The idea started while working in Tyre in 2013, we recognized that a fisherman community can create a clean environment (in its quarters and historic fishing harbor) by reinforcing cultural identity and sense of belonging, appreciation of crafts passed-down by ancestors and belief in cleanliness as a way forward.
