    Summary:

    This project aims for the long-term conservation and sustainable management of coral reef ecosystems and marine and coastal resources that support livelihoods and environmental security. The following activities will be undertaken between October 08 and September 09 (Stage One):

    1. Prepare environmental and socioeconomic profiles of participating countries

    2. Assess laws, regulation and policies and institutional capacities.

    3. Formulate a four-year program.

    4. Generate government support and forging partnerships for action.

     

    This regional technical assistance (RETA) will complete a design (phase 1) for a follow-on RETA (phase 2) to strengthen management of coastal and marine resources in coral triangle countries at the local and national levels to prevent environmental degradation and to achieve both global and local benefits from improved environmental management. The impact of both RETAs will be enhanced and sustained Pacific coastal and marine systems. The outcome of this RETA (phase 1) will be an agreed design of a 4-year coastal and marine resources management plan (phase 2) to be implemented from 2010 to 2013
