WASHINGTON, CMC – As the World Ocean Council (WOC) gets ready to host the Save our Seas conference (SOS) 2013, the Washington-based Institute for Caribbean Studies (ICS) has issued a call for private sector leadership in securing the future of the Caribbean Sea.
“SOS 2013 is an unparalleled, world-class gathering of the diverse ocean business community. It sets the agenda for ensuring responsible industry operations,” said Dr. Claire Nelson, ICS’ Jamaican-born president.
“We envision bringing together tourism, yachting, fishing, cruise-shipping, ocean data management, oil/gas, mining – everyone to engage private sector leaders in securing a sustainable future for our Caribbean Sea,” she added.
