Putting coastal communities at the center of a sustainable blue economy: A review of risks, opportunities, and strategies

by Evans, L. S., Buchan, P. M., Fortnam, M., Honig, M., and Heaps, L. (2023). Front. Polit. Sci. 4:1032204. doi: 10.3389/fpos.2022.1032204

In the published article, there was an error in the caption for Figure 1 as published. The text states: “Illustration of red flags for coastal communities based on the consolidation of evidence from literature indicating risks to communities from key blue economy sectors. Red indicates high risk. Amber indicates moderate or mixed risks. Grey indicates uncertainty or no clear references in the study materials reviewed. Key (clockwise from 1): Unequal; Exclusive; Conflict; Displaces communities; Rights violations; Adversely impacts livelihoods; adversely impacts food security; Lack of benefit overall.”

The corrected caption appears below:

“Illustration of red flags for coastal communities based on the consolidation of evidence from literature indicating risks to communities from key blue economy sectors. Red indicates high risk. Amber indicates moderate or mixed risks. Grey indicates uncertainty or no clear references in the study materials reviewed. Key (clockwise from 1): Rapidly expanding; Poor environment record; Unequal; Exclusive; Conflict; Displaces communities; Rights violations; Adversely impacts livelihoods; adversely impacts food security; Lack of benefit overall.”

The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
