Introduction
UNDP Sri Lanka, in partnership with the Government of Sri Lanka is envisioning a new development approach for Sri Lanka which leverages the Blue Economy. This Blue Economy initiative aims to enhance the sustainable use of ocean resources for economic growth, improved livelihoods, and jobs while preserving the health of ocean ecosystems.
At the heart of the blue economy approach, is a Marine Spatial Plan (MSP) and a Marine Investment Plan that supports the optimal use of Sri Lanka’s Ocean and its resources. In this regard, UNDP kickstarted the process of Marine Spatial Planning in 2023 and a Marine Investment Plan in 2024. This was directly responding to Sri Lanka’s National Budget 2023 which proposed an MSP to identify and declare the Exclusive Economic Zones to attract sustainable financing / investments. As a result, a core stakeholder group for MSP was established. And, at present the MSP roadmap is completed and the Marine Investment Plan is in final stages.
The Marine Investment Plan was conducted using Geographic Information System (GIS). GIS based data was used to combine several types of spatial data provided by over 30 government line agencies
