As the commitments in the RPOA 1.0 are implemented, the CT6 and partners anticipate achieving tangible
and measurable improvements in the health of the
CT marine and coastal ecosystems, in the status of the CT fisheries, and in the food security and
well-being of the communities which depend on them10.
To further support such improvements, the purpose of the RPOA 2.0 is to focus and align regional
collaboration11 in support of outcomes that will be
considered beneficiary by the country leadership in the next five years for 2020 to 2025, and is focused
to allow for relevant, feasible, and measurable impacts.
Impact statement: The implementation of RPOA 2.0 will enable resilient ecosystem and coastal
communities, with food security and sustainable livelihoods through conservation and sustainable
management of the ocean in the CT region
The CTI-CFF RPOA 2.0 covers a ten-year period with a five-year goal (as intermediate goal for review) and a ten-year goal, as follows:
By 2025, coastal communities and coastal and marine ecosystems are enabled to cope with
the impacts of climate change, natural and anthropogenic threats, in the Coral Triangle
region, due to measurable increased regional collaboration between the CT6 and our
partners, for the implementation of the RPOA 2.0 facilitated through a strong and effective
CTI-CFF
By 2030, coastal communities and coastal and marine ecosystems in the CT region are more
resilient/able to adapt to impacts of climate change, natural and anthropogenic threats, by
improving food security, sustainable fisheries and coastal livelihoods.
The three objectives are:
- Objective A: By 2030, health of coastal and marine ecosystems, priority threatened species
and fisheries in the Coral Triangle region are improved through effective management actions.
- Objective B: By 2030, Risk resilience and socioeconomic conditions, in particular food
security and coastal livelihoods, of communities living in the Coral Triangle region are improved.
- Objective C: CTI-CFF Governance, Leadership and Partnership.
