セーシェルではNDCにブルーカーボンを統合しつつあるが、データとガバナンスの課題がある。本研究は103名のステークホルダー調査により、マングローブと海草の保護に対する高い意欲がある一方、制度の未整備や認知不足が課題であることを示した。実施に向けて省庁間調整、資金計画、コミュニケーション戦略が必要。
English
Seychelles is integrating blue carbon into its NDCs but faces data and governance gaps. This study surveyed 103 stakeholders and found strong local motivation but inadequate institutional support and awareness, especially for seagrasses. Key recommendations include inter-ministerial coordination, financial integration, and targeted communication strategies.

In the global GX context
This paper provides an evidence-based roadmap for SIDS translating blue carbon ambition into action, highlighting governance gaps and the 'charisma gap' between mangroves and seagrasses—a novel finding with global implications for conservation communication.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:This paper provides a stakeholder perception framework applicable to blue carbon readiness assessments in other SIDS.
🏢実務担当者:Conservation organizations can use the findings to design communication strategies addressing the seagrass charisma gap.
🏛政策担当者:Seychelles' government can use the governance recommendations to strengthen inter-ministerial coordination and financial planning for blue carbon.
📄 Abstract（原文）
Seychelles, a Small Island Developing State (SIDS), is pioneering blue carbon integration in its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement. Yet data and governance gaps constrain realising its 2030 target to protect 100% of mangrove and seagrass ecosystems. Using a mixed-methods questionnaire, this study surveyed 103 stakeholders across government, NGOs, tourism, and academia to assess national readiness for translating blue carbon potential into actionable conservation and climate strategies. Respondents recognised coastal protection, carbon sequestration, and fisheries enhancement as the top benefits of these coastal wetlands, while land-use change and pollution were the leading perceived threats. Stakeholders indicated that the public generally views mangroves positively, but sees seagrasses as unattractive or of low importance, highlighting a potential “charisma gap” linked to limited education and outreach. Nearly 90% of research-oriented respondents cited funding and infrastructure shortages as major constraints, though 96% of organisations expressed willingness to support research and education in kind, and almost 2/3 would support conservation actions. The findings reveal encouragingly strong local motivation, but inadequate institutional scaffolding and community awareness to translate intent into implementation. To deliver its 2030 commitments, Seychelles must strengthen inter-ministerial coordination, embed blue carbon into national finance and land-use planning, and scale communication strategies to elevate seagrasses as well as mangroves. These governance priorities provide an evidence-based roadmap for transforming widespread goodwill into measurable conservation outcomes, offering a model for SIDS transitioning from blue carbon ambition to action.
