This operational note has been prepared to help strengthen the implementation and impact of the European Union funded ACP MEAs 3 project with support from the Secretariat of the Organization of the African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States (OACPS) in Africa, Caribbean and the Pacific countries to mainstream and operationalize the gender dimensions of compliance and enforcement to multilateral environmental agreements (MEAs) and strengthen environmental governance.

The purpose of the Critical Habitats Outlook will be to support Governments of the WIO region to establish a baseline for Sustainable Development Goal 14.2 which seeks “to sustainably manage and protect marine and coastal ecosystems to avoid significant adverse impacts, including strengthening their resilience and to take action for their restoration, to achieve healthy and productive oceans by 2020”.
