The Abu Dhabi Blue Carbon Demonstration Project

Project Outcomes

The Abu Dhabi Blue Carbon Demonstration Project shows that incorporating the values of Blue Carbon and related ecosystem services into Abu Dhabi Emirate’s coastal and marine management policies is warranted and feasible and will help sustain the services Blue Carbon ecosystems provide for future generations and a growing Abu Dhabi. The Abu Dhabi Blue Carbon Demonstration Project has enhanced local capacity to better manage Blue Carbon ecosystems and can provide lessons learned for regional and international replication and up-scaling.
