Assessing the Value of the Northern Mozambique Channel

Developing the economic case for integrated ocean governance and ecosystem investment in Africa’s most biodiverse oceanic region.

Assessing the Value of the Northern Mozambique Channel makes the case for conserving and investing in the Northern Mozambique Channel’s (NMC’s) natural capital as a foundation for sustainable development by assessing the region’s total natural capital and quantifying the value that ecosystem services contribute to the region and its economies on a yearly basis. It aligns with the shared Vision and Roadmap for marine spatial planning and sustainable use of the NMC that were developed by NMC country representatives and stakeholders.

This report was produced through a partnership between WWF and the Nairobi Convention Secretariat under the Integrated Management of the Marine and Coastal Resources of the Northern Mozambique Channel (NoCaMo) Project, with research led by Prime Africa Institute.
