Practitioner’s Field Guide for Marine Conservation Agreements

The Practitioner’s Field Guide for Marine Conservation Agreements (MCAs) is intended to take field practitioners through a four phase, step-by-step process to investigate, develop and implement MCAs.

The MCA field guide identifies a process to evaluate the applicability of MCAs to specific sites, resources or ecosystem services for ocean and coastal areas throughout the world. The field guide is intended to be used by conservation practitioners who understand the basic theory and framework of MCAs. The field guide does not give detailed background and contextual information regarding MCAs, nor does it provide extensive information on marine and coastal biology. For detailed information on MCAs, readers should consult the on-line MCA Toolkit at: www.mcatoolkit.org.
