Managing Multi-Lateral, Intergovernmental Projects and Programmes, the case of the UNEP/GEF Project Entitled: “Reversing Environmental Degradation Trends in the South China Sea and Gulf of Thailand”. (UNEP 2005)
The management of comprehensive and extensive, multi-lateral and multi-national programmes and
projects in the field of coastal and ocean management poses numerous organisational problems
encompassing co-ordination between the actions of individual participating countries and interventions
that are designed to address issues as diverse as: biological diversity conservation and sustainable
use; fisheries management; maritime transport; and the control of land based pollution. Whilst the
substantive issues and problems that are to be addressed during project implementation are generally
well analysed and the potential solutions are generally identified based on sound scientific knowledge
and information, less attention is all too frequently paid to the management structure that will ensure
coherence and co-ordination of the interventions once the programme or project is under
implementation.
