Kilifi County
Trade, Tourism and Cooperative Development
Overview
The blue economy has a great potential to contribute to higher and faster GDP growth in Kenya.
The potential of the blue economy in Kenya is largely unexploited due to uneven focus on land as the most important factor of production.
While Kenya is endowed with large water bodies, the communities living in close proximity to such lakes, seas and oceans in the continent are among the poorest in the region.
