The International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) Capacity Building (CB) Strategy aims to enhance hydrographic surveying and nautical charting capabilities in nations with navigable waters. It operates through three key phases: 1) Awareness raising and data collection, 2) Building capacity for hydrographic surveys and data processing, and 3) Producing high-quality nautical charts and publications. Emphasizing collaboration with national authorities, regional hydrographic commissions, and international organizations, the strategy focuses on sustainable development, resource mobilization, and long-term impact in maritime safety.
