Indian Maritime Foundation

Indian Maritime Foundation (IMF) is a voluntary, non-profit NGO, established in Pune in December 1993 and run by former naval and merchant marine officers who have a high sense of dedication and commitment to this cause of public service they have embarked upon. The goal of IMF has been – and continues to be – to raise awareness of the oceans and to rekindle maritime consciousness and pride in our people. In other words, our goal is to make our men and women of India sea-minded. India is a major maritime nation, with an ancient seafaring history, a coastline of over 7000 km, flanked by seas and island territories on both sides and at the centre of a great ocean that bears the name of our own nation, India.

This channel has been created for putting up videos of events conducted by the Indian Maritime Foundation such as lectures, seminars/webinars, coastal cleanup activities, SIMA exhibitions as well as a guided tour of facilities such as the IMF Museum.
