Abstract

By far the largest habitat for life on earth and the cradle of new species, habitats and undiscovered ecosystems, our oceans are being intensively exploited and heavily degraded. Marine Protected Areas can be used to restore, safeguard and halt the negative impacts on the biodiversity of these oceans. The proceedings from this workshop highlight some of the discussion aimed at developing an action plan to promote a system of MPAs to ensure long-term protection of ecosystem processes, biological diversity and productivity beyond national jurisdiction.
