The Chinese Regional Hub on Blue Carbon (China-BC) is an initiative of the Global Ocean Decade Programme for Blue Carbon, with the goal of establishing a mechanism that connects science, policy, and public outreach.
China-BC aims to enhance collaborative efforts to advance regional blue carbon science and facilitate knowledge exchange between China and the global programme. Additionally, China-BC seeks to provide cutting-edge scientific research to inform the development and implementation of national policies, as well as promote best practices for conserving blue carbon ecosystems. The establishment of an active platform will enable greater public participation in the conservation of blue carbon ecosystems.
