Scottish Government

The Scottish Government provides the Secretariat for the Forum and contributes scientific leadership and expertise through the Marine Scotland Directorate. A blue carbon research programme to develop understanding of blue carbon habitats in Scotland was funded by the Scottish Government in 2018 and enabled by its scientists and equipment. Scottish Government continues to support the forum, most recently via the Blue Carbon International Policy Challenge, which is enabling international collaboration and partnerships that address policy-relevant blue carbon questions.
