Our oceans and coastal habitats produce a variety of benefits for coastal communities. A series of Mapping Ocean Wealth infographics has been produced to help illustrate some of these benefits, with specific, quantitative examples about how and where these benefits are produced and delivered.

Informed by science, communications and policy work, Mapping Ocean Wealth visualizes in quantitative terms all that the ocean does for us today, so that we make smarter investments and decisions for the ocean of tomorrow.
A global partnership of scientists, policy practitioners and financial experts launched Mapping Ocean Wealth in January 2014. Led by The Nature Conservancy, this effort was conceptualized and incubated in partnership with The World Bank and is mapping the world’s vast ocean wealth in all its many forms and changing conservation and development policies and practices in the process through an understanding of how and where ocean wealth is generated and valued.
We need your voice and ideas to help us grow our work, there are a number of ways you can get involved.
