FileStrategic Action Program for the Integrated Management of the São Francisco River Basin and its Coastal Zone (SAP) Executive summary
The SAP is the outcome of the first stage of the Project for the Integrated Management of Land-based Activities in the São Francisco River Basin, approved by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) in 1998. Known locally as the GEF São Francisco Project, the project was prepared between July and November 2003. It is based upon the Diagnostic Analysis of the Basin (DAB) and its prepara- tion involved intense public participation and discus- sions within the scope of the São Francisco River Basin Committee (CBHSF), involving more than 12,000 people and 404 institutions.
FileYSLME-SAP
The following document, the Strategic Action Programme of the YSLME, provides a roadmap for improving the ecosystem carrying capacity by the year 2020, through a combination of improvements in environmental legislation and enforcement, improved regional co-ordination and national co-operation between government agencies, elimination of environmentally damaging subsidies, enhanced public awareness and capacity building, and the use of regional monitoring networks. Once in place, these actions will help limit the loss of habitat, reduce environmental degradation and improve over-exploited fish stocks. Using the principles of ecosystem-based management and sustainable use we can ensure these ecosystem services for future generations.
FileStrategic Action Plan(SAP) for Gulf of Honduras
The Strategic Action Plan (SAP) for the area of the Gulf of Honduras, is the result of a process of identification and analysis of problems that constitute the current state of the situation from which they the long-term desirable status of the situation was built, with a proposed scenario in which the current problems have been modified - or reversed - to achieve an acceptable environmental quality status. The SAP represents for the different stakeholders who interact at the different levels of the life dynamics of in the area of the Gulf of Honduras, the framework for regional harmonization and coordination of a series of actions of interest to be executed by countries in the study area (Belize, Guatemala and Honduras), both at national and regional levels, thus contributing to a comprehensive management - harmonious and sustainable – of the natural resources of the Gulf of Honduras.
FileStrategic Action Plan for the Lake Victoria Basin
This Strategic Action Plan (SAP) for the Lake Victoria Basin builds on the results of the National and Regional Transboundary Diagnostic Analyses (TDAs) carried out in the Basin in 2006. The TDAs identified key national and transboundary issues along with their underlying and root causes, within the context of the Vision and Strategy of the Basin. The SAP was designed to assist stakeholders across the Lake Victoria Basin (Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Burundi and Rwanda) to analyse and prioritize the key transboundary issues, interventions, goals, targets and strategies. The focus has been on developing broad consensus on realistic, achievable strategies and interventions for sustainable management of the Lake Basin in a define time frame of either short, medium or long term in order to develop mechanisms that will enable stakeholders to monitor the progress of the implementation process towards achieving the targets and goals set in the SAP. There are six chapters and seven annexes in this report. The results of participatory processes in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Burundi and Rwanda are presented in the SAP report, starting with the TDAs, feeding into the SAP. The TDAs, along with other relevant initiatives, form the baseline of the SAP. The SAP itself is a document intended for action and decision-making. The SAP for Lake Victoria Basin is a result of a participatory approach by stakeholders in the Basin. The stakeholders fully participated in the process leading to this SAP at both national and regional level. Many of these stakeholders, earnestly, gave their time to contribute at both the national and regional level. The lake Victoria Basin Commission would like to express sincere gratitude to all contributors to this process including regional technical reviewers, focal point officers, National project coordinators, a manifold of stakeholders and consultants. The production of this SAP would not have been possible without the rigorous review processes by the Task Force Team of Regional Technical Reviewers and the Regional Task Force Team that was tasked with the overall conceptualization, formatting, writing, design, production monitoring and editing of this report. Global Environmental Facility (GEF), through the World Bank (WB), provided very important financial contribution for the SAP process. The Lake Victoria Basin Commission, sincerely, acknowledges all the support and encouragement received throughout this process.
FileWIOLAB SAP-2009
The Strategic Action Programme for the protection of the coastal and marine environment of the Western Indian Ocean from Land-based sources and activities (SAP) has been completed at a time when it is most needed. The SAP will in particular help the governments in the WIO region to jointly or individually deal with the challenges associated with the increasing demand for coastal and marine resources and the consequent destruction and degradation of critical Forewordhabitats, changes in freshwater flow and sediments loads, as well as challenges resulting from global climate change. Decision-makers, administrators, planners, resource managers and scientists, will in particularly find this document valuable in the conception, formulation and implementation of specific projects aimed at enhancing the protection of the coastal and marine environment.

The principal objective of SAP BIO is establishing a logical base for implementing the 1995 SPA Protocol, that is providing Contracting Parties to the Barcelona Conventions, international and national organisations, NGOs, donors and all other actors involved in the protection and management of the Mediterranean natural environment, with principles, measures and concrete and coordinated actions at national, transboundary and regional level for the conservation of the Mediterranean marine and coastal biodiversity, within the framework of sustainable use and through the implementation of the 1995 SPA Protocol.
FileStrategic Action Programme to Address Pollution from Land-Based Activities
This Strategic Action Programme is based on the preliminary findings of the regionally prepared transboundary diagnostic analysis that represents a regional synthesis of actions regarding the protection of the marine environment from land-based activities. The following Table presents the perceived major problems of the Mediterranean region and their associated transboundary elements. Seven major problems have been identified from a review of the results of the work of the Mediterranean Action Plan over the last twenty years, the work of related programmes and the reviews undertaken in the context of the present activity. Five main root causes are identified as resulting in the identified problems, although the relative importance of each cause differs in relation to the individual problems. In addition two major types of action are proposed to address each of the identified problems and again the relative importance of each area of action differs according to the nature of the problem.
FileGCLME - Strategic Action Programme (SAP)
This Strategic Action Programme (SAP) for the Guinea Current Large Marine Ecosystem (GCLME) is a negotiated policy document under the aegis of the IGCC (later GCC) which describes policy, legal and institutional reforms and investments needed to address the priority problems of a transboundary nature identified in the Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA) of the GCLME Region. Within the context of the TDA, transboundary environmental issues include national/regional issues with transboundary causes/sources, transboundary issues with national causes/sources, national issues that are common to at least two of the countries and which require a common strategy and collective actions to address, and issues that have transboundary elements and implications. The document outlines the intervention actions required to resolve these priority problems.
