THE BENGUELA CURRENT LARGE MARINE ECOSYSTEM PROGRAMME (BCLME): EXPERIENCES AND SOME LESSONS LEARNED
The Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem Programme (BCLME) is a multi-country cross-sectoral regional initiative originally conceived in 1995 and developed by Angola, Namibia ad South Africa in partnership with UNDP and GEF as a means to ensure the integrated management, sustainable development and protection of this globally important eastern boundary current region. A step-wise bottom up process was adopted in the project development phase (PDF Block B) which was characterised by excellent co-operation between the principal scientific institutes and management agencies in the three countries and comprehensive multi-sectoral consultations with all stakeholders.
