Non-violent direct action – or NVDA – is the beating heart of Greenpeace. By taking action we prevent damage to the environment and disrupt business-as-usual.
The Action Unit is a diverse team of staff who design and deliver creative confrontations and those who support and develop our activist community.
The team consists of several action coordinators, an action resource manager, a warehouse manager, an administration officer, a unit head, and warehouse and/or action coordinator assistants.
Greenpeace is an independent global campaigning organisation that acts to change attitudes and behavior, to protect and conserve the environment and to promote peace. It comprises 26 independent national/regional offices in more than 55 countries across Europe, the Americas, Africa, Asia and the Pacific, as well as a co-ordinating body, Greenpeace International.
Greenpeace Nordic was established in 1999 through an association of the national Greenpeace offices in Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Norway. The offices merged to increase impact and efficiency through better Nordic cooperation.
