As a comprehensive and sustainable strategy for maximizing the potential of oceans and marine resources, the blue economy has gained a lot of support in recent years. The core of this economic paradigm is centered around inclusivity, which prioritizes the ethical utilization of marine ecosystems for the advantage of all parties involved, ranging from coastal communities to worldwide companies. A sustainable blue economy not only places environmental preservation as a top priority but also seeks to empower underprivileged areas, promoting social fairness and economic durability.
