Membership

Core members of the CLME+ Partnership will consist of:

  • the CLME+ countries that have politically endorsed the SAP;
  • 8 IGO’s which have a formal mandate for the marine environment in the CLME+ region.

It is around this core that the wide-ranging, multi-stakeholder “CLME+ Partnership” will then be progressively built.

In support of enhanced private sector and civil society engagement in the CLME+ Partnership, the Project called “Catalysing Implementation of the Strategic Action Programme for the Sustainable Management of Shared Living Marine Resources in the Caribbean and North Brazil Shelf Large Marine Ecosystems” (UNDP/GEF CLME+ Project; 2015-2020) is now supporting work on the development and delivery of “civil society” and “private sector” versions of the CLME+ SAP (“C-SAP” and “P-SAP”).
