Africa-Press<\/a> – Tanzania<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Zanzibar said on Thursday that more research and innovation is required to support implementation of its \u2018Blue Economy policy\u2019 to achieve the intended goals.<\/p>\n

The Ministry of Blue Economy and Fisheries, Permanent Secretary (PS), Dr Aboud Jumbe Aboud, has said Zanzibar needs researches and innovations to forge ahead its blue economy ambition.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need research and innovations to support our blue economy policy,\u201d he said when officiating the sixth \u2018Research and Innovation\u2019 week organised by the University of Dar es Salaam at its Institute of Marine Sciences (IMS), Buyu campus in Unguja West B District.<\/p>\n

The event was held under the title \u2018Saving our ocean, blue recovery, coastal and marine diversity, combating marine pollution, climate change, and building up on our blue economy. The PS argued that discussing and addressing research in ocean science is critical because without ocean science, the country cannot develop ocean policy aspects and will not be able to engage the blue economy as it should.<\/p>\n

Dr Jumbe said that a science-to-policy dialogue through a dynamic, integrated, comprehensive, and participatory process was needed to provide a sustainable response plan.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe now have a blue economy policy with special focus on fisheries, mariculture, tourism, maritime governance, oil and gas development and renewable energy. \u201cOur policy also underscores the critical importance of research, innovation and knowledge about these ocean-based sectors and blue economy,\u201d Dr Jumbe said.<\/p>\n

He said that for the blue economy goals to be realised, more capacity building, awareness, technology, research and development are required. Mr Mbiru Moses, a PhD student at the University of Dar es Salaam said that the research and innovation week enables them to meet people and educate them about marine science.<\/p>\n

About 50 departments from the university were taking part in the innovation week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
