Dear NCA CoP members,

The Global Ocean Accounts Partnership will be holding a 2nd International
Dialogue on Ocean Accounts on 20 April 2020 (see www.oceanaccounts.org).

In order to give members of the Africa NCA CoP a further introduction on
ocean accounting, a three-hour virtual knowledge sharing workshop will be
held by the Cape Peninsula University of Technology on 16 April 2021.

This workshop is targeting CoP members who are members of, or who are
interested in joining, the Africa NCA CoP Ocean Accounting Working Group
(OAWG). The workshop is being conducted with other ocean accounting CoPs so
apologies for any cross postings that may have been received.

Topics to be included in this workshop include:-

• What is an ocean economy? Are there differences between an oceans and a
blue economy? If so, how do they differ?
• How do we integrate the sustainability of ocean wealth and inclusivity of
ocean benefits within ocean resource uses and economies?
• What is an account?
• What are National Accounts?
• What are Oceans Accounts and how do they align with National Accounts?
• How do we use ocean accounts to integrate data from across the
environmental, social and economic domains in consistent, standardised and
comparable manners?
• How do we go from data to information to statistics to indicators?
• Ocean Sciences are changing. How can we use Big Data in the ocean
science-to-policy interface?
• How can Ocean Accounts and associated indicators be used in ocean
decision support?
• Ocean Accounts for Africa?

The workshop is targeted towards attendance of the Global Oceans Accounting
partnership 2nd International Dialogue on Ocean Accounts but is open to all
interested participants.
