Background to the Blue Economy
• Globally economic relationships with the oceans are evolving.• Currently the setting for international commerce and transport, a significant source of
food and energy, the oceans’ contribution to countries are already important.• Growing familiarity with the oceans environment, new technologies for ocean
resource exploitation, longer- term growth and demographic trends, food security and alternative sources of minerals and energy, increased seaborne trade as well as rapid coastal urbanization are drivers of the evolving relationship
• globally through new national ocean development plans, governments are focusing on the oceans for a source of jobs, innovation and competitive advantages
• This gathering trend of expansion and acceleration of human activity in and around the ocean, is seen as the industrialization of the oceans.
• “blue economy” concept has its origins in the broader green movement and describes a sustainable balance between economic growth and ocean health

Definition of the Blue Economy
Working Definition – SIDS Concept Paper, World Bank• Marine-based economic development leading to improved well-being and
social equity, whilst reducing environmental risks and ecological scarcities.• Reframing the oceans as “development spaces” subject to spatial planning• Incorporating the value of the oceans into economic decision making• Establishing policies that favour low-carbon, resource-efficient, and socially
inclusive development• Prioritizing the use of the oceans to benefit people, alleviate poverty,
generate employment and promote equity• Decoupling socio-economic development from environmental degradation• Improving relevant international law and governance mechanisms

Minimum Criteria for a Blue Economy
• Human needs are addressed – securing need for food, water, energy, materials, recreation and health, as well as jobs, livelihoods, community life and political stability
• Ecosystem sustainability – ensuring that resources are grown, harvested, processed, used and recycled in a way that promotes improvement of the biodiversity and productivity of the supporting environment
• System approach – applying tools of systems thinking, modelling and integrated planning inclusive of inter-linkages between and among different economic activities and ecosystems
• Sustainability standards – following global standards and guidelines for sustainable business operations, investment and development, with margin for continuous refinement and improvement
