  1. Sustainable marine and coastal resource management in the Asia-Pacific in the context of international conservation targets Trisha Kehaulani Watson, JD, PhD Room 401 (A&B), 14:30 – 16:30, 10th September 2012 IUCN World Conservation Congress 2012 Organizers: Birdlife International, United Nations University, Center for Regional Sustainability Initiatives (CRESI), Sophia University (Japan), Ministry of the Environment (Japan), University of Victoria (Canada) and North Australia Indigenous Land and Sea Management Alliance (NAILSMA)

  2. Joint Targets • Relationship Building and Pre-Decision Information Gathering • Combing Conservation Targets with Human Welfare Targets • Helping People to Identify their Role in the Conservation Story • Restoring, revitalizing, and institutionalizing native cultural values, beliefs and practices that reinforce a conservation ethic Obtaining Better Community Support

  3. A`oaku, a`o mai Reciprocal learning Key to achieving targets and garnering the necessary community support is building strong and respectful relationships with native and local communities. It is more than just asking permission or gaining consent, it is having a relationship with the community that fosters reciprocal learning and enhances education. Process

  4. Makawalu To see from many sides Literally “eight eyes,” makawalu reinforces a methodology that utilizes science, technology, indigenous ecological knowledge / history and spirit. By building research questions collectively with the community and identifying data gaps in a similar manner, you build a stronger database to serve as your “best information available” in decision making. Methodology

  5. Kapu Restricted and Sacred Uses Decision making surrounding the use of traditional natural resources was a strictly regulated activity in Hawai`i prior to Western contact.
