Our approach is to empower human potential through active inclusive stakeholder engagement; results driven research that strives to be practical with meaningful, engaged outcomes. We focus on practical awareness, identifying climate change, blue, green and circular economy opportunities and finance, training and entrepreneurship approach through all stages of a project; including monitoring and evaluation whilst being accessible; focusing on empathy. Blue Economy Future extends beyond just offering traditional consulting and project management services to facilitating entrepreneurship and courses, devising curriculums and manuals; policy advice, implementation, increased fund-raising, facilitation and awareness of news, events, initiatives and opportunities. It has established a significant global network and series of partnerships. Our sustainable, climate change, environment, green and blue economy experience extends to the legal, laws, policies, socioeconomic, events and latest technological/knowledge updates with work experience in a variety of ocean/blue economy areas. These include ocean governance, illegal and unregulated fishing, undersea exploration, marine protected areas; marine renewable energy; ocean governance and sovereignty/maritime law, ocean pollution reduction and the circular economy, small harbours, marine renewable energy, to cruise and marine tourism to biotechnology entrepreneurship, education, business, drones, ship repair, digitisation, actual blue economy strategies, space economy, maritime law, ocean governance, logistics, blue economy finance and psychology. Recent project examples include Durban’s Blue Oceans Economic Strategic Framework, advising on current global and South African ship repair markets and a socioeconomic valuation of the sector, risks and opportunities of the Benguela Current Region for the Benguela Current Convention (Namibia, Angola and South Africa). Others include monitoring and evaluating the Durban Oceans Champs/Durban-Bremen Marine Environment Education Network and advising on the implications of the 4th Industrial Revolution for maritime education and training.36169609207500The approach that Blue Economy Future follows is based on sustainability, inclusivity, optimizing potential and integration. Sustainable development refers to the economic development that is both inclusive and environmentally sound, and to be undertaken in a manner that does not deplete the natural resources that societies depend on in the long term. The need to balance the economic, social, and environmental dimensions of sustainable development in relation to oceans, land, ecosystems is a key component of the transition towards a climateproofed future and climate resilient sustainable land, ocean and marine livelihoods, communities and ecosystems and circular economy, zero-waste future. It is an approach that aims to ensure long term optimal survival, maximizing the technological innovations of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, harnessing individual and collective human ingenuity, sustainable finance and creativity for greater local and global prosperity.

A new analysis by the?Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC)?shows that?wind can power 3.3 million jobs over the next five years in a dynamic supply chain across the world, many of which will be locally based and will require a variety of skills across the full value chain of the sector.With 751 GW of wind power capacity already installed, the wind industry has generated nearly 1.2 million jobs globally to date?according to the International Renewable Energy Agency. The world’s leading wind energy countries are home to hundreds of thousands of direct jobs in the wind industry.?As of 2020, there were approximately 550,000 wind energy workers in China, 260,00 in Brazil, 115,000 in the US and 63,000 in India, according to a global survey by GWEC Market Intelligence.This new analysis highlights the net economic benefits of the energy transition and?wind power's potential for job creation globally, as well as wind power's role to power a just transition?as the world still recovers from the impacts of COVID-19.?Download the AnalysisKEY HIGHLIGHTSThe additional?470 GW?of forecasted wind capacity through?2025?could create?more than 3.3 million direct jobs in a dynamic supply chain around the world.Green recovery actions which accelerate the deployment for wind power projects can?unlock jobs in the transport, installation and commissioning segments.Deploying?6 TW?of wind power by?2050?would?mitigate 6.3 gigatonnes of CO2 emissions annually and generate huge cost savings in healthcare, infrastructure, social welfare, and system resilience.Offshore wind in particular offers?a response to labour market disruptions from the energy transition?such as dislocation of jobs for offshore oil and gas and marine engineering workers. ?The energy transition offers net employment gains, and?each dollar spent on fossil fuels means governments are missing out on potential jobsRead More?? Global Wind Workforce Outlook 2021-2025 | Now Available!?In 2019, Global Wind Organisation partnered with the Global Wind Energy Council to highlight the importance of safety, training and job creation to power wind energy deployment and the global energy transition. The two organisations have teamed up again with the second edition of their joint report Global Wind Workforce Outlook 2021-2025, in partnership with RCG.As the expansion of the global wind industry accelerates, opportunities for job creation are of growing interest across the supply chain, particularly to regional and national governments who increasingly view green energy as a driver for economic growth and social development as well as a route to decarbonisation of electricity networks.This analysis continues to use GWO training data as a measure of workforce requirements for 10 wind markets at different stages of development, and is based upon the outputs of a bespoke workforce forecasting model which assesses the impact of a range of interdependent influences on workforce needs. This will assist in supply chain development, helping to ensure industry standard GWO training is properly targeted where it is needed most.Download the Report!KEY HIGHLIGHTSNearly half a million workers need to be trained to GWO standard to deliver onshore and offshore wind forecast safely over the next five yearsOver 70% of the new global workforce training demand will come from 10 countries: Brazil, China, Japan, India, Mexico, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, USA, and VietnamGWO training is essential for jobs in construction, installation, operation and maintenance segments of the wind power value chain, and does not cover jobs in procurement, manufacturing (the most labour-intensive segment), and transportGlobal standardised training is the most effective tool to ensure the health and safety of the wind workforceThere is significant untapped potential for the training and industrial education supply chain in countries across the world, and organisations in scope to deliver the additional training capacity needed can develop GWO programmes now to meet this future demand Discover More InsightsJOIN THE VIRTUAL LAUNCH!1 JUNE11:00-12:00 CESTIn the official launch event for ‘Global Wind Workforce Outlook 2021-2025’, we will hear from the report authors on the key takeaways to meet workforce demands in key onshore and offshore wind markets, insights on working in the industry from wind power workers around the world, and from international experts on the importance of building a trained workforce to ensure health and safety of workers, secure the long-term sustainability of the sector, and create millions of local jobs to power a green recovery and the global energy transition.

SDG4 aims to ‘ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all’. The transformational power of high-quality education is undeniable and the ability to learn new information, knowledge and skills offers life-long value to those able to take advantage of it, as well as for the societies that they live in, as greater education leads to increased prosperity.We are excited to share the news that the?Maltese Ministry for Foreign and European Affairs?(MFEA) in collaboration with the?Islands and Small States Institute of the University of Malta?(ISSI), is providing scholarships for students who are nationals of certain Small Island Developing States (SIDS).In addition to the scholarships, it is important to highlight that both the Master by research in Islands and Small States studies (full-time or part-time), and PhD programme can be studied fully online or in blended form (in-person and online). This new way of learning, driven by both technology and the global pandemic, presents a great opportunity for potential students living in SIDS, as it means they no longer need to leave their island to be able to study at the Islands and Small States Institute, at the prestigious University of Malta. The Islands and Small States Institute which was founded over 30 years ago, promotes research and training on economic, social, cultural, ecological and geographical aspects of islands and small states.You can find out more by reading the?article?we have published in our website.James Ellsmoor,Founder & CEORead moreThis Week's Highlights??Watch The Recordings: Island Finance Forum 2021.??In Race To Recovery, The Caribbean Wants Less Hesitancy, More Vaccines.??East Timor: A Young Nation Reviving Ancient Laws.??Dynamic WHO Dashboard For Island States Highlights Barriers And Progress On Climate Change And Health.Threatened By Rising Sea Levels, The Maldives Is Building A Floating City.Maldives is creating an innovative floating city that mitigates the effects of climate change and stays on top of rising sea levels.
