Editorial ownership of website content

Greenpeace is a network consisting of Greenpeace International and 26 national and regional Greenpeace organisations (NROs), which are all separate and independent entities. The Global Mapping Hub, which maintains https://maps.greenpeace.org and its subpages, is part of Greenpeace International.

For the sake of convenience, this website and other publications sometimes refer simply to “Greenpeace” when talking about one or more organisations within the network. Similarly, the words “we”, “us” and “our” may also be used to refer to other entities in the Greenpeace network and their respective staff, activists and volunteers. NROs are sometimes referred to as “offices” (although a single NRO can have more than one physical office).

Depiction of disputed territories

Greenpeace is politically independent and does not take sides in territorial disputes. The way boundaries are depicted on maps on this site reflects local legal requirements and/or the data source used.
