PROJECT DESCRIPTION (DE)
Initial situation
The Coral Triangle is considered the global epicenter of marine biodiversity. However, its unique habitats and important ecosystem services are increasingly threatened. The most important stressors include overfishing and the destruction of coastal habitats, the discharge of garbage and wastewater, and ocean acidification and rising sea temperatures as a result of climate change.
In view of the growing challenges, the six countries of the Coral Triangle founded a multilateral partnership in 2009, the Coral Triangle Initiative on Coral Reefs, Fisheries and Food Security (CTI-CFF).
Due to the size and transnational ecological interconnectedness of the Coral Triangle, a comprehensive approach to its protection is necessary. Against this background, the governments of the six CTI partner countries prioritized three large marine areas: the Sulu-Sulawesi Seascape, the Lesser Sunda Seascape and the Bismarck-Solomon Seascape.
Objective
The six countries of the Coral Triangle are taking measures to conserve biodiversity and the associated ecosystem services in three large, transboundary marine regions.
Approach
The project aims to increase the resilience of ecosystems and local communities in the three prioritized marine regions. To this end, tried-and-tested approaches to the protection and effective management of marine and coastal areas will be widely deployed in close cooperation with the governments of the partner countries
