Summary

African Hub for Ocean Impact NPC (AHOI) proposes to expand and sustain a thriving Community of Practice for Blue Economy Entrepreneurial Support Organizations across Africa. This initiative aims to empower talented Africans to innovate within the ocean impact space, creating equitable and sustainable ocean economies. By providing tailored technical assistance, derisking entrepreneurship, and enhancing awareness of ocean sector's opportunities, the project fosters an interconnected ecosystem of stakeholders supporting them with centralised resources along with growth opportunities. Ultimately, it supports coastal communities in adapting to climate change at scale and mitigates environmental impacts of ocean industries - large and small players alike.
