The International Ocean Film Foundation is a nonprofit organization that leverages independent film to promote ocean literacy, conservation, and action. It operates a year‑round program beyond its flagship event, connecting audiences with ocean health issues through film screenings, filmmaker Q&As, and expert discussions, and it runs a traveling program and free education initiatives for students, educators, scientists, and conservation leaders. Based in San Francisco, California, the foundation has established the world’s premier ocean-focused film festival, held annually in April, with the 23rd edition planned for 2026, and it collaborates on global screenings and youth education through its evolving program. Its activities are oriented toward audiences worldwide, seeking to mobilize viewers to engage with ocean conservation and related initiatives while expanding outreach through partnerships like international film events.
