Title:
I.
Overview
The
Indonesia Sustainable Ecosystems Advanced (SEA) Project is a five-year contract
that supports the Government of Indonesia to conserve biological diversity and
improve the governance of marine resources at local, district, provincial and
national levels. By using an ecosystem-based approach to management and
engaging key stakeholders, the SEA Project will 1) enhance
conservation and sustainable use of marine resources
by reforming fisheries management and promoting marine protected areas to
enhance fisheries
productivity, food and nutrition security, and sustainable livelihoods within
the target area;
and 2) strengthen the leadership role and capacity of the Ministry of Marine
Affairs and Fisheries
and local governments to promote conservation and sustainable fishing. The SEA
Project is implemented by Tetra Tech and a consortium of partners that includes
Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), Coral Triangle Center (CTC) and
WWF-Indonesia (WWF). The SEA Project will run from March 2016 through March
2021.
The SEA Project is predicated on an ecosystem
approach to fisheries and marine resources management, which implies that it
will integrate across sectors and assist in the development of plans and
implementation actions that address biophysical, governance and socio-economic
concerns. To accomplish this vision of
ecosystem approach and integration, it will need to formulate a consistent
level of baseline information for project areas so that actions and longer-term
plans will truly address the underlying issues and threats to the geographic
areas of focus. Such an approach will
also provide a model for other areas in Indonesia and a systematic means of
scaling up coastal and marine resource management by local districts, provinces
and the national government.
The SEA Project will implement activities in the
three provinces —West Papua, North Maluku, and Maluku Provinces—that lie within
Indonesia’s Fishery Management Zone WWP-715. This zone was chosen to be the
site of the SEA Project because of the area’s high marine biodiversity, status
as a national priority area for fisheries, the presence of small island
provinces/districts, high rates of extreme poverty and high vulnerability to
climate change. The project will also operate at a national scale to support specific
activities of the Ministry of Marine Affaires and Fisheries.

sustainable fisheries management. As
