3 Background Regional Seas programme aims to integrate the Ecosystem Approach (UNEP/WBRS18./INF5) Involves setting regional ecological objectives and monitoring on progress towards the objectives UNEP proposed to establish a set of indicators to track chronological change in environmental status Report Measuring Success Indicators for Regional Seas Conventions and Action Plans was launched Regional Seas Indicators Working Group was initiated in 2015
4 Regional Seas Indicators Working Group Date Event Output 30 June to 2 July October 2015 The Technical Workshop on Selecting Indicators for the State of Regional Seas was organized First Meeting of the Regional Seas Indicators Working Group Regional Seas Working Group established The core set of the Regional Seas indicators was adopted 14 March 2016 Second Meeting of Regional Seas Indicators Working Group Reviewed different indicators used regarding July 2016 Third Meeting of Regional Seas Indicators Working Group Reviewed different indicators used regarding 14.2 Decided to conduct mapping exercise between SDGs, Aichi targets and regional targets

8 Compilation of background information Questionnaire was conducted in 2015 on 22 indicators scientific background monitoring points and frequency organisation(s) monitoring the indicator the data source(s), spatial coverage, temporal coverage, frequency of updates HELCOM, MAP, NOWPAP, ROPME, BSC, OSPAR, CEP, and SPREP submitted information
9 Compilation results Information on 3 indicators were compiled and discussed by the WG (UNEP/WBRS.18/3) Indicator 1 (chlorophyll a) Indicator 3 (beach litter) Indicator 22 (ICZM) Various methods were identified We do not intend to harmonize methodology Inter-calibration of different methods may be needed for inter-regional comparison
10 RS Indicators, Aichi and SDG Targets Existing practices and metadata as compiled by the Indicators Working Group have been submitted to the IAEG-SDGs Regional Seas programmes will be able to assist Member States in monitoring the progress towards ocean-related SDGs Source: IASS
11 Preliminary results from the mapping Regional Seas secretariats analyze the synergies between the Regional Seas indicators, Aichi Targets and SDGs Targets Summary UNEP/WBRS.18/3 Annex 2
12 RS indicators set VS SDGs Under the Goal 14, the RS core indicators set does not well address the following targets (Table 2 UNEP/WBRS.18/3): By 2020, prohibit certain forms of fisheries subsidies which contribute to overcapacity and overfishing 14.7 By 2030, increase the economic benefits to small island developing States and least developed. countries from the sustainable use of marine resources 14.a. Increase scientific knowledge, develop research capacity and transfer marine technology 14.b. Provide access for small-scale artisanal fishers to marine resources and markets 14.c Enhance the conservation and sustainable use of oceans and their resources by implementing international law as reflected in the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea
13 Next Steps for the RS indicators WG Regional Seas Secretariats may identify current gaps between their respective regional targets and the SDGs Discuss linkages between the regional targets and SDGs with the participating countries Develop the SDG implementation outlook Submit the Regional Seas core indicators set to the respective governing bodies for adoption
14 Discussion points Do you agree to submit the Regional Seas core indicators set to the respective governing bodies for adoption? What are the steps to align the Regional Seas indicators set with the SDG indicators? What are the next steps of the Regional Seas indicators Working Group? Continue compilation: how to continue? Each WG member to compile information on 1 indicator? Scientific validation? Start working with the three indicators as pilots?
