Developing the China⁃Africa Blue Partnership is the result of China’s continued efforts to push forward bilateral and multilateral maritime cooperation, and a realistic requisite for China to substantively participate in global ocean governance. Construction of the China⁃Africa Blue Partnership in the context of global ocean governance shares advantages while also faces some problems. Developing the China-Africa Blue Partnership will demonstrate the mighty energy of South⁃South cooperation in the field of global ocean governance, which contributes to building a fair and equitable international ocean⁃political relationship, developing a sustainable global blue economy, promoting the building of “ a community with a shared future for the ocean”, and improving the global marine ecosystem. In order to establish the China⁃Africa Blue Partnership, we should rationally choose prioritized areas and countries to conduct maritime cooperation,with a focus on accelerating China’s modernization of maritime governance system and maritime governance capacity. In the same time, China should also do a good job in coordinating with extraterritorial powers. Last but not least, special attention should be paid to promote the synergy of UN agendas with the African Development Plan, and contribution should be made to the resolution of disputes in global ocean governance and the improvement of global ocean governance mechanisms.
