2 Marine Pollution Prevention and Management in the East Asian Seas (MPP-EAS) countries US$ 8 million Building Partnerships in Environmental Management for the Seas of East Asia (PEMSEA) countries US$ 16.2 million

3 PEMSEA: An International Organization focused on Coastal and Ocean Governance in East Asia

4 PEMSEA COUNTRY PARTNERS

5 PEMSEA NON-COUNTRY PARTNERS

6 SDS-SEA: Landmark Strategy Responding to UNCED and other International Environmental Agreements Regional declaration of commitments to implement a shared vision and common objectives Adopted by 14 countries in East Asian Seas region 6 strategies 227 action programs principles, objectives and actions enshrined in global and regional agreements including UNCLOS, Agenda 21, WSSD, MDG Implementation through ICM framework and process

7 Framework for SDS-SEA Implementation Plan Governance Set up Coordinating Mechanisms at the Regional, LME and Subregional Sea Levels Achieve Coastal and Ocean Policy/ Legislation Maximize Local Government Capacity Realize climate change adaptation (CCA) and disaster risk reduction (DRR) measures in vulnerable coastal areas through ICM Programs ICM Scaling Up Integrate sustainable use of coastal and marine ecosystem services into ICM programs in biodiversity and fisheries hotspots Advance water supply conservation and management and pollution reduction and waste management through ICM programs in priority coastal and watershed areas Monitoring/ Evaluation Capacity Development/ Knowledge Management Sustainable Financing Implement integrated environmental monitoring to strengthen knowledge and understanding of ecosystems and their management from ridge to reef Apply the State of the Coasts Reporting System Establish accredited ICM and special skills training courses and programs Enable ICM Learning Centers, National and Regional Centers of Excellence and educational institutions to train, educate and build awareness in coastal and ocean management Build a knowledge platform and support network to facilitate scientifically sound decisions and investments in sustaining ecosystem services Increase public and private sector investments in enterprises, technologies, practices and services that contribute to a sustainable ocean-based blue economy Mobilize donors, domestic and foreign investors and other concessional sources of funding to help address program gaps in means and capacity Demonstrate and replicate the use of innovative financial and economic instruments and other incentives, designed to drive positive changes in behavior

8 ICM Scaling Up Targets: Climate Change and Disaster Risk Reduction Macro-scale land- and sea-use zoning Sustainable coastal development planning Socio-economic assessment and adaptation strategies Disaster preparedness and response

9 ICM Scaling Up Targets: Protecting and enhancing ecosystem services for biodiversity and fisheries Biodiversity and fisheries priority areas (kbas) Policy and program development and implementation Strengthening management effectiveness through ICM MSP, PAs/MPAs, EAFM, etc. Alternative/supplemental livelihoods Socio-economic benefits assessment Financing mechanisms (blue carbon)

10 ICM Scaling Up Targets: Water supply, pollution reduction and waste management in priority watersheds and coastal areas Ecosystem management framework for trans-jurisdictional environmental issues in priority watersheds and coastal areas Engaging national and subnational governments in coordination of upstreamdownstream management interventions Socio-economic impacts and benefits Good policies and practices in investment and financing

11 Title Geographical scaling up of ICM 57 ICM sites (12 countries) Total coastline: 84,682 km 11

12 Knowledge, tools and instruments to transfer knowledge Thematic areas Cross-cutting Disaster reparedness Knowledge, tools and instruments ICM system orientation and initial assessment State of coasts reporting system Environment risk assessment ICM profession certification Port Safety, Health, Environment Management (PSHEM) orientation and audit ICM Code and Certification Coastal use zoning disaster assessment and support system; emergency preparedness planning Oil spill preparedness and contingency planning Beach management vulnerability and sustainability assessment Habitat resilience decentralized MPA management integrated land and sea use zoning

13 Knowledge, tools and instruments to transfer knowledge Thematic areas Fishery and aquaculture Water resource supply Pollution reduction Knowledge and good practices Simulation models Value chain analysis community-based fishery management eco-aquaculture Integrated information management system for river basin and coastal areas river modelling use of wetland for tertiary waste treatment composting and liquid fertilizer application bio-gas power generation from livestock waste appropriate application of fertilizers by farmers sewage treatment plants, communal septic tanks construction of collection networks use of revolving fund for household sanitation improvements crop and livestock pollution mitigation total maximum daily load allocation for integrated river basin and coastal area management

14 PEMSEA Network of Local Governments A self-sustaining network of local governments implementing integrated coastal management (ICM) PNLG Secretariat established and being hosted by Xiamen Municipal Government (China) PNLG Executive Committee established A non-country partner of the East Asian Seas Partnership Council PNLG Charter and Code of Conduct adopted 5-year PNLG Strategic Action (SAP) Plan adopted Dongying Declaration adopted to implement the SAP Reporting mechanism for implementation of SAP and Dongying Declaration established

15 Membership of PNLG In 2013, PNLG had 31 local government members and 2 associate members from 8 countries across East Asia Up to April 2015, local government members have increased to 37

18 Potential Areas of Collaboration between PEMSEA and IOC/WESTPAC Periodic and mutual sharing of information on research and trainings, project updates and policy recommendations; Consideration of ICM pilot sites for establishing and operationalizing monitoring systems in support of state of coast reporting practiced at local level; Identify means and ways for meaningful interaction between PEMSEA Regional Centers of Excellence and/or ICM Learning Centers and the IOC Regional network of Training and Research Centers to strengthen the networking and experience sharing in the following areas: Conducting training and research in areas identified at the 9 th ISS, Coastal erosion and hazards, Ecosystem restoration techniques; and Vulnerability assessment tools and methodologies Developing training manuals and toolkits in identified areas. Sharing of research development in 5 th EAS Congress and 10 th ISS between the two support networks

19 Potential Areas of Collaboration between PEMSEA and IOC/WESTPAC Participation in the development and adoption of the updated SDS- SEA and corresponding SDS-SEA Implementation Plan during the EAS Congress 2015 Input to the planning and preparation of a Regional State of Oceans and Coasts report for the Seas of East Asia commencing in 2016; Review of the partnership and identification of other opportunities for IOC/WESTPAC/PEMSEA collaborative activities during the annual meetings of the IOC WESTPAC and EAS Partnership Council
