Marine Protected Areas often suffer from inadequate and unsustainable funding sources, with over 60% globally of existing MPAs having reported inadequate budgets for basic management and compliance. The Commonwealth has a huge stake in the future of our ocean, together covering more than one-third (35%) of national marine waters globally.
This webinar:
• Provides an overview of the sustainable financing concept for the effective management of MPAs
• Showcases good and best practice case studies from two project sites
• Elaborates on how financial resilience needs to be built in, to move forward in a post COVID-19 world
