CLME Project Document
The Sustainable Management of the Shared Marine Resources of the Caribbean Large Marine Ecosystem (CLME) and Adjacent Regions Project or CLME Project was 5-year project funded by GEF where causal chain analyses were developed, resulting in the identification of weaknesses in transboundary and cross-sectoral governance arrangements as the over-arching root cause for the 3 key transboundary problems. If better articulated and coordinated among each other, and more strongly tied to a solid and enhanced regional governance framework, a substantial increase of the positive impacts of the many ongoing and newly planned efforts in the region could be achieved. During the CLME Project, a “10-year CLME+ Strategic Action Programme for the Sustainable Management of the shared Living Marine Resources of the Caribbean and North Brazil Shelf Large Marine Ecosystems” (the “CLME+ SAP”) was developed and politically endorsed by over 20 CLME+ States)
