Linkages to other GEF projects • GEF –UNDP – FAO Project OFM 2 (FFA – SPC - CSOs) • GEF UNDP WPEA 1 tuna project (WCPFC - Vietnam – Indonesia – Philippines) • GEF UNDP WPEA 2 tuna project (WCPFC - Vietnam – Indonesia – Philippines) • FAO-GEF global tuna project (t-RFOMs - countries – industry – CSOs)

  15. Appreciation to the Pacific Community

  16. Project 2 - Deep-sea Project Sustainable fisheries management and biodiversity conservation of deep-sea ecosystems in the ABNJ

  17. The FAO Deep-sea Programme

  18. ABNJ Programme FAO Deep Sea Programme GEF-Funded Deep Seas project VME Database Project Sust. FI - Deep-sea Project VME and RFMO Deep-sea Project

  19. The FAO Deep-Sea ProgrammeCurrent and upcoming activities • Species identification guides • Specific guides for the identification of deepwater species (sharks, corals and sponges) • Training for deepwater species identification in major ports • Data collection and collaboration with industry • Fishing Vessel Execution of Acoustic Surveys for Assessment of Deep-sea Species • Manual on data collection for vulnerable deep-sea species • Best practices for collaboration between managers / scientists / industry • How to improve trust and collaboration

  20. The FAO Deep-Sea ProgrammeAreas of work • Global assessments and reviews • Alfonsino Workshop January 2012 • World Wide Review of Deep-sea Fisheries in the High Seas: Second edition (2007-2010) • Best practices for encounter protocols, impact assessments and use of VME criteria • Workshops in May 2013 • Compilation of Best practices • Compilation of historical fisheries data • SEAFO area

  21. The FAO Deep-Sea ProgrammeCurrent and upcoming activities • VME Database • Regional workshops on VME data • Regional meeting Indian ocean July 2012 • SE Atlantic (April 2013)

  22. ABNJ Deep-sea Project PROJECT COMPONENTS To enhance sustainability in the use of deep-sea living resources and biodiversity conservation in the ABNJ, through the systematic application of an Ecosystem Approach Improved application of policy and legal frameworks Reducing adverse impacts on VMEs and EBSAs Improved planning and adaptive management for ABNJ deep-sea fisheries Development and testing of a methodology for area-based planning

  23. Project 3 - Ocean Partnerships Project -Introduction Project title (revised) Ocean Partnerships for Sustainable Fisheries and Biodiversity Conservation - Models for Innovation and Reform GEF Implementation Agency: World Bank Project Partners: Conservation International [Others] Finance: US$10m - GEF US$30m - GPO, World Bank and other

  24. Project 3 - Ocean Partnerships -Scope ‘Coast to Coast’ Connectivity between coastal zones, EEZ and the ABNJ Areas within which fish and by-catch species (including aquatic animal and seabird biodiversity) migrate and are captured. Fisheries seen as both a threat and opportunity to tackle biodiversity conservation and other development outcomes… Unlocking the wealth of fisheries can ensure sustainable contributions to developing countries’ Triple Bottom Lines Biodiversity & conservation Economic growth Welfare / food / jobs

  25. Project 3 - Ocean Partnerships -What will it do? Define up to six bankable RBM pilots which will…. …"develop and test technology and management arrangements for both pelagic and deep-sea environments and seamounts [...] in limited pilots that test a range of instruments including market and industry approaches“ (GEF strategy paper) …be demonstrative, influential and transformational– fast tracked and able to inform GEF-6. …contribute to both GEF (BD and IW) and GPO objectives

  26. Project 4 - Strengthening Global Capacity to Effectively Manage ABNJ Linking global and regional/national processes

  27. Project 4 - Strengthening Global Capacity to Effectively Manage ABNJ GEF Agency & Executing Partner • Partners: • Global Ocean Forum (Co‑ExecutingAgency) • Deep Sea Conservation Coalition • French Marine Protected Areas agency • IDDRI Institute for International Relations and SustainableDevelopment (France) • iMarine • UNESCO-IOC • UNESCO Natural Sciences Division • Nausicaä Centre National de la Mer (France) • World Ocean Network • OSPAR Commission • SeaOrbiter US $1 million from GEF for 5 years Co-funding estimate US$4 million

  28. Project 4 - Strengthening Global Capacity to Effectively Manage ABNJ OBJECTIVES Facilitate cross-sectoral dialogue and coordination Improve capacity development Improve knowledge management and outreach

  29. Project 4 - Strengthening Global Capacity to Effectively Manage ABNJ CROSS-SECTORAL POLICY DIALOGUES Cross-sectoral multi-stakeholder workshops • 2 planned: 2013, December 2014 High-level Dialogues at Major Relevant Ocean-related Meetings • World Fisheries Congress, 6th Global Ocean Conference, FAO COFI, 3rd International MPA Congress

  30. Project 4 - Strengthening Global Capacity to Effectively Manage ABNJ CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT Communities of Practice Regional ABNJ Leaders Fellowship Program

  31. Project 4 - Strengthening Global Capacity to Effectively Manage ABNJ KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT AND OUTREACH Public Outreach Network ABNJ Portal

  32. Project 4 - Strengthening Global Capacity to Effectively Manage ABNJ • Next steps • Consultation process Project formulation and consultations Project implementation GEF Review GEF Council November 2011 through December 2012 Winter 2013 2013-2017

  33. Conclusions

  34. What will the Programme achieve? The projects must lead to changes on the water: • who catches the fish • what they catch (… and what do they not catch) • how much they catch • how they catch it • where they catch it

  35. Thank You
