PROJECTS

Community-based Projects & Accelerator

The Blue Action Lab is leading and contributing to a variety of important initiatives in Grand Bahama and beyond.

Freeport, Grand Bahama, The Bahamas

ECOSYSTEM RESTORATION PROJECTS

Coral reef and mangrove restoration projects are underway to enhance natural resilience. We will work with Blue Action Lab members, local partners, and experts to restore marine ecosystems. The massive impact of Hurricane Dorian ravaged much of the mangroves across Grand Bahama and degraded swaths of these critical habitats. 

Blue Carbon Finance

The Blue Economic Planning Program will assess Blue Carbon Market potential in Grand Bahamas and conduct model planning for Marine Protected Areas. This will develop opportunities in diverted waste streams, mangrove conservation, and seagrass meadows protection. To this end, Blue Action Lab staff recently completed a socio-economic impact analysis of its business plan based on data provided by the initial cohort of 6 Action Lab member companies working in carbon abatement and ecosystem restoration. 

Marine Protected AreaS

Blue Action Lab is working with Coral Vita, the Bahamas National Trust, and other local and international stakeholders to expand and enhance Marine Protected Areas.
