Kenya joins global ocean centre initiative to advance a sustainable blue economy
This initiative is spearheaded by the United Nations Global Compact and Lloyd’s Register Foundation.
Kenya is positioning itself as a leader in sustainable ocean and wind energy with two landmark developments: the success of the Lake Turkana Wind Power project and its selection as one of seven countries globally to host a United Nations-backed Ocean Centre.
This initiative, launched during the 3rd United Nations Ocean Conference in Nice, France, is spearheaded by the United Nations Global Compact and Lloyd’s Register Foundation.
Slated for launch in July 2025 in Mombasa, the Kenya Ocean Centre will be hosted by Global Compact Network Kenya, serving as a national platform to drive safe, inclusive, and sustainable growth within the country’s blue economy.
