17thLME

17th Annual Large Marine Ecosystem Meeting

29 September - 2 October 2015, Paris, France



The primary objective of the 2015 meeting is to consolidate and operationalize the LME Partnership in accordance with the objectives of the recently approved GEF LME:Learn project and engaging marine and coastal project leaders in meeting those objectives. As we did last year, the 17th LME Meeting will be structured according to four building blocks as follows:

1. Building Global and regional networks of partners to enhance ecosystem-based management and to provide support for the GEF-IW LME/ICM/MSP/MPA projects;

2. Mobilizing knowledge, capturing best LME governance practices, and developing new tools to enhance the management effectiveness of LME, ICM, and MPAs;

3. Strengthening capacity and partnership building through twinning, learning exchanges, and training among LMEs and similar initiatives, and;

4. Providing communication, dissemination and outreach of GEF LME/ICM/MSP/MPA project achievements and lessons learned.
