Mauritius focuses on coral reef protection, seagrass restoration, and sustainable fisheries management. GBW’s approach integrates community engagement, scientific monitoring, and policy alignment, ensuring that interventions enhance biodiversity, climate resilience, and local economic opportunities.
Local stakeholders, including fishers, coastal communities, women-led cooperatives, NGOs, and research institutions, are empowered to co-lead restoration projects. Partners such as the Mauritius Oceanography Institute and GBW provide technical expertise, capacity-building, and pathways to participate in regional ocean governance dialogues.
Key results include strengthened management of 8 LMMA sites, improved coastal livelihoods through sustainable aquaculture initiatives, and enhanced capacity to participate in international marine policy processes, including BBNJ negotiations. Mauritius demonstrates how island nations can lead in regenerative blue economy practices while safeguarding critical marine ecosystems.
