GOAP Fellows

Recognised experts advancing ocean accounting globally through technical guidance, capacity building, and knowledge sharing

About the Fellowship

GOAP Fellows are recognised experts in ocean accounting who play a vital role in advancing the field globally. They bring deep expertise in ocean accounting, the System of Environmental-Economic Accounting (SEEA), marine science, and environmental economics.

Our Fellows contribute to the development of technical guidance, lead capacity building initiatives, and share knowledge across the global ocean accounting community. They represent diverse backgrounds from government statistical offices, academic institutions and international organisations.
