Seminar on Policy Reform, Sustainable Financing and Investment for Pollution Reduction in the East Asian Seas
Ecosystem based management approaches required by the SDS-SEA include cross jurisdictional policy making, basin wide management strategy and master programmes, habitat conservation and protection, pollution prevention and reduction, scientific support, and financing and investment. To facilitate the implementation of this SDS-SEA component, PEMSEA has organized two workshops in 2005 and 2006 respectively to examine major challenges and response strategies needed to facilitate capacity development in site specific ecosystem based management programmes in the region, and knowledge transfer through twinning arrangements across the sites. The two workshops have addressed major aspects of ecosystem based management approaches, particularly related to institutional and scientific interventions, without elaboration on the financing and investment.
