72 MARINE AND COASTAL
PROTECTED AREAS
– control of dynamite and other destructive fisheries implemented
– alternative uses/income generation option trials undertaken
– restoration of reefs and mangroves started
– woodlots for firewood and building poles established
– improved sanitation and pollution control tested and implemented
– bylaws formulated and accepted at all levels of government
– land/sea use plans and zoning (including protected areas) formulated at village
level and accepted by all levels of government.
Second Phase (1997-2000)—leading to integrated resource management plans
3. DEMONSTRATION to fine-tune and adjust processes and actions to a wider
range of cases, and to develop cost-sharing arrangements. The lessons from pilot
villages applied in additional villages to:
– test strategies and approaches
– fine-tune strategies and approaches
– investigate cost-sharing mechanisms
– investigate suitable financing options
– increase number of experienced/skilled participants
– demonstrate visible and widely accepted benefits.
Third Phase (2000-2003)—spreading successes to more communities and handing
over the project to local authorities.
4. MAINSTREAMING to adapt processes, actions, and methods as normal practice
throughout the region. The actions anticipated for this phase include:
– lessons learned and successful applications spread widely throughout all villages
– network of community-based protected areas established and functioning
– institutions changed, if and where necessary, to support community managed
areas
– collaborative management activities become part of normal government practice
under broader CZM framework
– programme is self-sustaining.
3.4 Issue-Action Analysis
A community forum is one effective way to open up a participatory discussion on
