Our Programs: You love the ocean as much as we do,
and we can’t protect it without you.
Our work is focused on solving some of the greatest threats facing our ocean today. We bring people, science and policy together to champion innovative solutions and fight for a sustainable ocean.
Global ocean is predicated on our commitment to ocean justice – which we define as the fair and equitable distribution of both the benefits of the ocean’s bounty and the burdens of its complex care. This program helps build our community in this leading cause.
Our Ocean Futures Initiative is working to understand the interactive effects of stressors like climate change and acidification on our ocean. We create sustainable ocean-based climate solutions, work with all levels of government to implement these solutions.
From our headquarters in Washington DC, we’re working to ensure that our ocean gets the funding and attention it requires. From fighting for marine debris funding to promoting ocean acidification research and protecting key provision
