The
Wildlife Conservation Society’s Indonesia program aims to conserve
marine resources vital to the protection and sustainability of a wide
range of human activities and livelihoods. Consequently, conservation
efforts cannot be separated from the management of fisheries or
interaction with coastal communities. WCS employs a rigorous scientific
approach to build capacity, strengthen management and inspire community
stewardship for the protection and sustainable use of critical marine
ecosystems, fisheries and threatened species. To achieve these goals,
WCS employs a science-based approach to assisting the Indonesian
government to establish and manage marine protected areas (MPAs), manage
small-scale fisheries, and protect sharks and rays in various sites.
The WCS Indonesia Marine program focuses on the establishment and effective management of MPAs and development of sustainable fisheries, as interlinked strategies to secure and manage Indonesia’s coastal marine resources. WCS is committed to assisting the Government of Indonesia to meet its national and international commitments to MPA establishment and management – including the commitment to achieve 20 million hectares of MPAs by 2020. MPAs benefit both biodiversity and fisheries management by protecting habitats and protecting breeding populations of important marine organisms. The basis of all of our work is scientific data. Our teams of marine biologists, fisheries scientists, and socioeconomic specialists inform project design with baseline surveys. Regular monitoring of resources informs all subsequent decision making.
WCS has started marine work in Indonesia in 2002 and has expertise in marine and socioeconomic surveying, fisheries science, marine protected area creation and management, marine and fisheries policy, and law enforcement.. Through KfW funding for the period of 2019 – 2025, within these area of expertise, WCS will continue to support the Government of Indonesia through Sustainable Fisheries Management, Decreasing threats to coral reefs and Supporting the designation and management of protected areas.
This project aims at conserving Indonesia’s diverse marine ecosystems and important fisheries through creation and improvement of marine protected areas (MPA) and improved management of commercially and ecologically important fisheries. It will benefit the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries, fisheries managers in West Nusa Tenggara, North Sulawesi and Aceh provinces, and local communities who rely on marine resources. It will address threats of overfishing, destructive fishing, and loss of marine habitats, WCS-IP is currently seeking for qualified candidates to fill the following vacancy:
