To generate strategic knowledge, influence public policy, and connect key actors — from investors and academia to government and the private sector — laying the foundations for a sustainable and forward-looking Blue Economy in Angola.
We are a platform for thought leadership, strategic insight, and multi-sectoral dialogue. A starting point for ideas that may inspire and inform future initiatives — whether public, private, academic, or community-led.
