Integrated and Sustainable Management of Transboundary Water Resources in the Amazon River Basin Considering Climate Variability and Change Project Document

The goal of this project is to strengthen the institutional framework for planning and executing, in a coordinated and coherent manner, activities for the protection and sustainable management of the land and water resources of the Amazon River Basin in the face of ongoing climatic changes being experienced in the Basin. The proposed project endeavors to realize a shared vision for the sustainable development of the region, based upon the protection and integrated management of transboundary water resources and adaptation to climatic changes. This specific project or PDF-B represents the preparatory phase, which will primarily build a common vision, formulate a framework TDA for the basin as a whole as well as a project brief for the next phase through a comprehensive public participation process.

Integrated Ridge to Reef Management of the Mesoamerican Reef Ecoregion (MAR2R) Project Document

The MAR2R project aims to create the enabling conditions necessary to bring the key regional, national and local actors along the ridge to reef continuum to collaborate and manage the freshwater, coastal and marine resources of the MAR. The project seeks to consolidate regional coordination and capacities for a harmonized approach to the management of the ecoregion via the strengthening of CCAD to lead and bring together the environmental authorities of the four MAR countries towards a common goal. The project goal is to contribute to the conservation and sustainable use of shared freshwater, coastal and marine resources of the transboundary MAR ecoregion by implementing the ridge to reef approach and hence securing sustainable economic benefits and livelihoods for the countries and their communities

Integrating Green And Gray – Creating Next Generation Infrastructure

In this report, the World Bank and World Resources Institute show how the next generation of infrastructure projects can tap natural systems and, where appropriate, integrate green and gray infrastructure. This call for the next generation of infrastructure—both green and gray—echoes the World Bank’s Changing Wealth of Nations 2018 report, which showed that natural capital can be leveraged rather than liquidated through the development process.

Integrating Water, Land and Ecosystems Management in Caribbean Small Island Developing States (IWECO) Project Document

The Integrating Water, Land and Ecosystems Management in Caribbean Small Island Developing States (GEF-IWEco Project) applies a “Ridge to Reef” approach integrating watershed and coastal areas management in small islands for addressing the multiple challenges of sustainable water, land (including forests) and biodiversity management and conservation within the spatial framework of the watershed unit. The project supports policy, institutional and legislative reforms, contributes to the implementation of effective appropriate technologies to accelerate contribution to global targets on access to safe and reliable water supplies and improved sanitation, and helps to improved ecosystem functioning in the Caribbean.

Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission: biennial report, 2012-2013

We celebrated the 50th anniversary of IOC three years ago. Nevertheless we had faced various challenges arising from the change of internal and/or external circumstances during the past two years. Among them has been the financial situation of UNESCO and IOC that drew our keen attention. The United States of America and Israel have both withheld their assessed contribution after UNESCO admitted Palestine as a Member State through voting in October 2011.

This led to a 76% cut in resources for activities and an 8% cut in staff in the IOC budget for the 2012-2013 biennium. The allocation of the Emergency Fund from UNESCO, however, increased the total available funding for programme activities from 24% to 58% of the approved 36 C/5 UNESCO work programme level. The current budget reduction has never been experienced before, yet IOC and Secretariat staff endeavoured to respond to it by minimizing its impact on activities. In light of the serious financial situation of IOC, I very much hope IOC Member States will explore ways to contribute extrabudgetary funds to IOC’s programmes.
