Blue Economy

Oceans not only help us in transportation of goods and services but also enable us to
use the vast resources such as oil and natural gas and other minerals besides fisheries.
Around 38 million people in the world depend on the fisheries from the oceans.
Hence, oceans provide enormous economic opportunities for the people as well. Blue
economy is the sustainable use of resources of the oceans in a way to help the coastal
community people in their economic and social development.
