Sustainable blue economy in the Norwegian arctic Part 1: Status
DNV has together with the Centre for the Ocean and the Arctic written two reports on the sustainable Blue Economy in the Norwegian Arctic; Status report and foresight study towards 2050. This is the first report.
This first report provides a status on the sustainable blue economy in the Norwegian Arctic in relation to the 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It considers each of the SDGs and the targets that are most relevant to the region and brings together a broad overview of existing knowledge for a status review. To achieve this, a comprehensive document review combined with workshops and interviews with key experts and stakeholders were performed.
To analyse the current state, this report divides the SDGs into four main categories (biosphere, society, economy and partnerships).
