[Uniquement en Anglais] Eastern Tropical Pacific Seascape Project
[Uniquement en Anglais]
This 3-year project by UNESCO World Heritage Centre and Conservation International, and with financing from the UN Foundation and Global Conservation Fund, calls for the promotion of long-term management and conservation of five marine protected areas within the Eastern Tropical Pacific through using the World Heritage Convention and other international and national legal instruments.
The project will support the World Heritage nomination process for sites not yet listed, possibly using serial and/or transboundary nomination strategies.
It will also promote regional collaboration on key marine conservation issues in view of contributing to the integrity of the marine World Heritage sites and their surrounding waters in the Eastern Tropical Pacific as well as promote increased application of relevant international conventions and environmental laws through capacity building.
World Heritage Centre and Conservation International collaborate with several national partner organisations to undertake the activities at the site level. The activities at sites focus on strengthening management through capacity building and providing technical assistance for protection measures as well as shared learning and networking among sites.
