New publication: The Caribbean Blue Economy

The Caribbean Blue Economy is a new book published in October 2020, edited by and featuring a number of UWI colleagues (including from FST Mona). “The book opens with an examination of the region's position in the global picture regarding adoption of the Blue Economy and examines key crosscutting issues such as ecosystem services, climate change and governance at all levels that could make or break the Blue Economy initiative. Following this, it explores the main sectoral activities that will constitute the Blue Economies in the region: fisheries, tourism, shipping and transport, renewable energy, oil and gas, seabed mining and waste management are all considered, closing with a synthesis of the political and technical requirements to overcome threats and take advantage of opportunities in the Blue Economy.” The book is edited by Peter Clegg, Robin Mahon, Patrick McConney and Hazel A. Oxenford.
