Following up on the adoption by the 43 member countries of the UfM in February 2021 of the 2nd UfM Ministerial Declaration on Sustainable Blue Economy, UfM countries, Co-Presidency, and Secretariat, agreed to elaborate a Roadmap for the implementation of the 2021 Ministerial with a view to producing an in-depth overview and analysis of the joint needs, gaps and opportunities for future support, funding, and implementation for each of the 10 priorities set by the Declaration.

This landmark document includes a sketching out of ongoing initiatives, programmes, and projects, while linking to and formulating promising pathways, processes, and actions to be launched, scaled-up, and promoted from the short to the longer term. The Roadmap also foresees an easy to implement monitoring system, essential to assess progress towards the implementation of the Ministerial at regional level.
