National Blue Carbon Policy Assessment - United Arab Emirates - Summary
Much work has been done on advancing and implementing conservation efforts in blue carbon ecosystems (mangroves, seagrasses and saltmarshes) in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) by the Abu Dhabi Global Environmental Data Initiative (AGEDI), Environment Agency Abu Dhabi (EAD) and the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCAE) in partnership with Emirate Municipalities. Blue carbon efforts were initiated by the Regional Blue Carbon Feasibility Study and the Abu Dhabi Blue Carbon Demonstration Project. This document builds on findings of the National Blue Carbon bundled with Ecosystem Services programme, as well as Abu Dhabi’s Blue Carbon Policy (Climate Policy Assessment Report) published by AGEDI as part of the Abu Dhabi Blue Carbon Demonstration Project.
