Governance arrangements for marine ecosystems of the Wider Caribbean Region
The Regional Governance Framework (RGF) proposed in this report has evolved over the duration of the CLME Project, through interaction with regional stakeholder organizations. Much of the conceptual basis for the framework was developed and accepted by the countries and regional organizational that stage. What is presented here takes the concepts to the next stage of an actual framework addressing actual issues and identifying organizations and the roles that they would play in the framework. What is presented here is based on assessment and consultation with key partner organizations and is viewed as a consensus to be proposed to the countries for adoption rather than a set of options among which the regional organizations and countries must decide.

Guidelines for applying the IUCN protected area management categories to marine protected areas
The development of this second edition of these guidelines was in part a response to evidence of the widespread incorrect application of the categories to marine protected areas (MPAs). Marine management and sustainable fisheries management are critical elements of good oceans management, but are not the same as protected areas management, where the primary focus is conservation of nature. The primary purpose of these supplementary guidelines is to increase the accuracy and consistency of assignment and reporting of the IUCN categories when applied to marine and coastal protected areas. These supplementary marine guidelines are aimed at ensuring that the IUCN categories can be effectively applied to all types of MPAs as well as to any marine components of adjoining terrestrial protected areas, provided a site meets the IUCN definition of a protected area.

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
