We are beyond excited to announce that we’ve teamed up with the legendary Ocean Futures Society (OFS), founded by the one and only Jean-Michel Cousteau! 🌊
Together, we’re launching a powerful partnership to protect our oceans, spread awareness, and inspire action. Jean-Michel Cousteau will also be joining us as our keynote speaker at the upcoming CORAL Forever Gala!
But before we get to the gala, let’s take a moment to get to know the organization and the man behind it all—because trust us, this is a partnership worth celebrating ✨
Meet Jean-Michel Cousteau
Carrying the Legacy of Ocean Exploration
The Cousteau name is iconic when it comes to ocean exploration. Jean-Michel Cousteau is the son of the legendary Jacques Cousteau, a man who quite literally changed the way we view and understand the ocean. Jacques Cousteau was a pioneer in marine conservation, and his films, books, and inventions (hello, scuba diving!) brought the mysteries of the deep sea into living rooms around the world.
Jean-Michel picked up right where his father left off, but with his own unique vision and passion. For decades, he has traveled the world as an explorer, environmentalist, and filmmaker, sharing the ocean’s wonders and advocating for its protection. From producing award-winning documentaries to speaking at global summits, Jean-Michel is one of the most passionate voices in ocean conservation today.
Ocean Futures Society – A Force for Global Ocean Conservation 🌍
Founded in 1999, Ocean Futures Society is Jean-Michel Cousteau’s way of carrying forward his father’s legacy while creating his own lasting impact. OFS is all about one key message: Protect the ocean, and you protect yourself.
This message drives their mission of educating people of all ages about the critical importance of ocean conservation. Through films, public speaking, expeditions, and partnerships (like this one! 🙌), OFS works tirelessly to remind us that our oceans aren’t just beautiful—they’re essential to life on Earth. From the air we breathe to the food we eat, the health of our oceans affects us all.
Their work includes marine conservation initiatives around the globe, such as protecting coral reefs, advocating for marine sanctuaries, and promoting sustainable ocean policies. OFS believes in empowering communities to take an active role in ocean protection, showing that every one of us can make a difference 🌊
Why This Matters 💙
At the heart of this collaboration is the idea that when we work together, we can create real, lasting change. Both our organization and Ocean Futures Society believe in the power of community, whether it’s local fishermen in Roatan managing their reef resources or global leaders rallying to protect the seas.
With OFS by our side, we’re excited to elevate our impact, share inspiring stories, and amplify the urgent call to protect coral reefs and the biodiversity they support. This is more than a partnership—it’s a shared mission to ensure future generations inherit a thriving, healthy marine environment.
