From knowledge to action

The German Ocean Foundation is a non-profit organization that is committed to the sustainable use and development of our ocean as the common heritage of humankind following the best scientific knowledge.

We are committed to protecting our planet's largest and most important ecosystem and, where necessary, to restoring its health. We bring the fascinating life in the ocean to life, draw attention to threats and give the ocean a voice because it is essential for the survival of people on our planet.

We organize a constructive, joint dialogue between society, business and politics supported by the latest science and look for joint solutions for people and the ocean. We are committed to a sustainable marine policy in Germany and Europe through education, events, competitions and research and are committed to improving ocean awareness in Germany.
