**Hollywood, CA** – Disney is launching a major ocean conservation campaign in conjunction with the release of “Moana 2,” partnering with National Geographic Pristine Seas and the Polynesian Voyaging Society (PVS). The initiative aims to protect the world’s oceans and celebrate the spirit of exploration embodied by the film’s protagonist.

A new featurette featuring footage from “Moana 2” highlights the ocean’s importance and its power to inspire. The campaign leverages the work of Pristine Seas, which has established 29 marine protected areas covering over 6.8 million square kilometers since 2008. Disney’s collaboration will support Pristine Seas’ efforts to work with local communities and governments to safeguard these vital ecosystems.

The partnership with PVS emphasizes the importance of traditional Polynesian wayfinding. PVS, using its iconic voyaging canoe Hōkūleʻa, has sailed nearly 300,000 miles, reviving ancient navigation techniques and fostering a deeper connection between humanity and nature. Their upcoming Moanauiākea Voyage in 2025 will continue this crucial work.

This initiative is part of Disney’s broader “Disney Planet Possible” commitment to environmental sustainability. Since 1995, the Disney Conservation Fund has contributed over $125 million to global conservation efforts, including marine life protection in over 40 countries.
