Summary
The project will result in the transfer of skills in mapping marine habitats using modern acoustic survey tools from UK organisations with proven expertise to the stakeholders in BVI. This in turn will provide essential information for spatial planning, sustainable use of marine resources, marine conservation and ensure safe navigation at sea.
The UK remains committed to playing a significant role in the world, in our national interest, in the interests of the poorest, and to ensure a liveable planet.
