Description

In Grenada, many people rely on reef fisheries for food and income, and there has been an increasing recognition in the region to manage these resources, especially in the face of climate change. The value of coastal and marine resources are often overlooked, but can be considerable as highlighted below.

The maps and statistics highlighted here are only a brief synthesis but point to the utility of both enumerating and mapping tourism value. Such maps and numbers may be critical in building a Blue Economy in the region, providing guidance on the location of key national assets, enabling such assets to be fully incorporated into planning, empowering communities and other users.
