Status of Coral Reefs of the World: 2002 • Regional projects and networks relating to coral reefs are growing in number in Eastern Africa and more broadly in the Indian Ocean. They involve all levels of participants from local to international levels, providing multiple opportunities to address coral bleaching and climate change issues at a large scale. RECOMMENDATIONS TO IMPROVE CORAL REEF CONSERVATION • Greater integration of monitoring at the national levels is required, along with improvements in methodology, data standards and archiving tools. Reporting of monitoring information at national levels needs streamlining, to improve the comprehensiveness of information available regionally and internationally. Longer-term commitment of support, from local institutions to international donors, is needed to give the necessary longevity to monitoring at national and regional levels. • Socio-economic assessments are being increasingly implemented, and a pilot monitoring program under the GCRMN is under trial. Greater technical and academic investment in socio-economic capacity is needed to improve data quality and standards, as well as to facilitate interpretation for management needs. Increased investment in research and activities centred on livelihoods and poverty alleviation will make important contributions to long-term sustainability of coral reef resource use. • The increase in regional networks and collaborations among Eastern African countries, including the island states, needs to be supported with networking, communication and travel funds, to consolidate regional integration in monitoring, management and conservation of coral reefs.
