About this Open Call for Concept Notes
The tiny size of our twin-island state has never defined our ability to succeed in areas that matter most. That includes our ability to create a nature-positive economy that benefits our people.
For decades the ocean has been an integral part of our food system and our livelihoods and has contributed substantially to the economy. But it has also suffered from rising temperatures and human interventions that destroy fragile ecosystems, reduce fish stocks and erode beaches.
