The 2021 EU Blue Economy Report assesses the scope and impact of the Blue Economy across the European Union, with a focus on its economic, social, and environmental effects. It aims to shed light on how the Blue Economy supports sustainable development and aligns with the goals of the European Green Deal. The report also highlights effective strategies and practices in sectors like fisheries, aquaculture, coastal tourism, and marine renewable energy, offering recommendations for future growth and sustainability.

Despite notable progress, the report identifies ongoing challenges, including overfishing, pollution, and the need for improved data collection and management.
