PECC International Seminar on "Managing the Blue Economy"

The key messages of the European Starfish 2030 mission were carried to the Pacific by Geneviève Pons and Pascal Lamy at the Pacific Economic Cooperation Council's international seminar that took place on May 30-31 in Papeete on the theme "Managing the Blue Economy".

Those key messages are:

1. Making better use of traditional knowledge for the conservation and sustainable use of resources

2. Fighting against overfishing by monitoring the huge EEZ of French Polynesia

3. Exploiting marine renewable energies and in particular thermal energies such as Sea water air conditioning (SWAC) or Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC).

These are some of the challenges the Pacific territories have to face.
