Very much looking forward to todays discussions on enabling and strengthening sustainable ocean economies @CME_Prog @SolsticeWio @AccorDocean
The NOC, through UK Government funded programmes, works with Small Island Developing States and Least Developed Countries to apply innovative technology that help restore, protect and encourage the resilience of marine ecosystems. 🙌 #UNOceanConference #UNOC22

Happy to see the work undertaken in Belize through the CME Programme being featured at #UNOC2022
Another informative day at #UNOC22, RAdm Rhett Hatcher joined the @IHOhydro panel session discussing how hydrography and #SeabedMapping contributes to marine spatial planning for sustainable management of the marine environment and knowledge of the world’s oceans. @seabed2030

DG @maradguyana has described the CME Prog. as Strategic & Innovative. Through @UKHO we have provided support to the Maritime Agency and we are also working with Government to develop a Maritime Economy Plan which we anticipate will be Cabinet endorsed and launched soon.

We worked closely with @CZMAIBelize on delivering the CME Programme in Belize on the scientific work and development of the country's Maritime Economy Plan which we expect to be Cabinet endorsed and launched soon. CZMAI's CEO reflects on the work of the Programme. @Commonwealth18

With CME Prog. work concluded we are taking a look back at how 🇬🇧 has been helping SIDS identify the potential of, and developing their marine economies in a sustainable, resilient, and integrated way. Over the next weeks we will be sharing the thoughts of key stakeholders.

It's day 2 of @NOCnews workshop where stakeholders from Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines are discussing larval connectivity modelling and predictive, broad-scale, benthic habitat mapping to inform marine spatial planning.

Great to have @NOCnews scientists back out in 🇩🇲 supporting the development of a #Sustainable #BlueEconomy through @CME_Prog
Quite a mounting frame for the multibeam system our team at @NOCnews are using to conduct surveys of priority areas in the Commonwealth of Dominica to acquire baseline seafloor information as part of the @CME_Prog @UKinCaribbean ⁦⁦@NorbitUK⁩

Checking details for a @CME_Prog collaboration with the Grenadian government and found this on Govt's site. Molinere Underwater Sculpture Park (Jason de Caires Taylor). Incredible! And affecting b/c rising seas a climate threat 🌊 gov.gd/mocr/ministry-climate… underwatersculpture.com/work…

Our @UKHOteam @CambrianCat have been busy surveying the southern waters of Belize to update the country's nautical charts. The hydrographic data will also be used for coastal zone management, environmental planning and maritime safety and security. Read👇 for more details

In November 2021, the #GlasgowClimatePact was forged at #COP26 and the 1.5°C goal was kept alive. In our Presidency Year, the UK is committed to delivering the outcomes of the summit. Find out what our priorities are ⬇️

👇👇 about installation of tidal gauges in 🇱🇨 with 🇬🇧support of @NOC & @CME_Prog By chance there I was today. Hope my photo illustrates why they matter in these locations. #Soufriere (can’t claim arrow is 100% accurate)
Interesting read: Building resilience to coastal hazards using tide gauges by lead @NOC scientist for the CME Programme. The 🇬🇧 Programme has supported the Governments of 🇧🇿 & 🇱🇨 in setting up tide gauges to monitor their sea level changes. nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/53… @LMSaunderson
