Capacity Building

African, Caribbean, and Pacific (ACP) Countries Capacity Building of Multilateral Environmental Agreements (MEAs) project: Effective implementation of the Nairobi Convention

ACP MEAs 3 Programme

As UNEP notes, oceans feed us, regulate our climate, generate most of the oxygen we breathe, and serve as the engines for much of the world economy.

Achieving the UN Agenda 2030 on Sustainable Development—with its targets on halting biodiversity loss, promoting greener growth; enhancing natural resource management; and protecting human health—will thus be impossible without more effective ocean governance. This is why the European Union has funded the Nairobi Convention and three other Regional Seas programmes—whose mandates are to address the accelerating degradation of the world’s oceans and coastal areas—for a project aimed at improving international environmental governance and better management of coasts and oceans.
