Sponsors | World Ocean Observatory
Our intent is to provide information and educational service at no charge to the public. To achieve this goal, we must rely on a small group of forward-looking supporters who understand the need to communicate ocean information on a global basis. We are committed to the lowest possible overhead; indeed, as a virtual enterprise and web-based collaborative, we expend no more than 2% of all funds raised on non-programmatic administrative expense.
We invite you to join the generous donors below who have contributed to our start-up and ongoing operations. To inquire how you can help, please contact us.
Contributions are tax-deductible to the extent of applicable national regulations.

OUTLAW OCEAN MUSIC PROJECT:
WHERE MUSIC MEETS JOURNALISM
All music in this project is based on THE OUTLAW OCEAN, a New York Times best-selling book by Ian Urbina that chronicles lawlessness at sea around the world. The reporting touches on a diversity of abuses ranging from illegal and overfishing, arms trafficking at sea, human slavery, gun-running, intentional dumping, murder of stowaways, thievery of ships, and other topics. The music is an act of solidarity across geography and language, and an attempt at storytelling from written word to music. It is a captivating collection of inspired songs. Take your pick: listen to ambient tracks, classical, electronic or hiphop.
