Regenerative Blue Economy
- A Regenerative Blue Economy is an economic model that combines rigorous and effective regeneration and protection of the ocean and marine and coastal ecosystems with sustainable, low or no-carbon economic activities, and fair prosperity for people and the planet, now and in the future.
- It seeks to reduce the impact of economic activities on biodiversity, promote the circular economy, decarbonisation, Nature-based Solutions and sustainable practices aligned with global commitments, while excluding destructive practices.
- It prioritises the needs of island states and Indigenous Peoples’ rights, traditions, stewardship and leadership in coastal and marine resource management and development.
- Achieving a Regenerative Blue Economy on a global scale will only be possible through global cooperation and a broad transformation spanning multiple economic sectors.
