OUR OBJECTIVES (2011-2013)
We aim to mobilize support from a wide variety of national and international organizations and governments to ensure legal protection for this critical habitat and to provide insights for the establishment of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) on the high seas. Key objectives:
- To build an international partnership that will secure recognition of the ecological significance of the Sargasso Sea and the threats that it faces.
- To use existing regional, sectoral and international organizations to secure a range of protective measures for all or parts of the Sargasso Sea to address key threats.
- To establish a management regime for the Sargasso Sea, and
- To use the process as an example of what can and cannot be delivered through existing jurisdictions in areas beyond national jurisdiction.
