Championing the end of societal sea blindness by promoting ocean literacy leading to ocean citizenship.
The Blue Economy Awards Kenya is the nation's first-ever platform dedicated to recognizing excellence in marine and coastal resource management.
The Blue Economy contributes approximately 4% to Kenya's GDP, with coastal and marine tourism accounting for about $1.5 billion annually. Our mission is to end societal sea blindness by making every Kenyan understand their connection to the ocean through food, trade, climate, employment, energy, technology and national prosperity.
