WWF common programme indicators

Considerations for selecting marine indicators

Complement what we have alreadyUse what existing programmes need :- Global priority places with marine ecoregions (Arctic,

Coastal East Africa , Coral Triangle, Galapagos, Madagascar, Mediterranean , Southern Chile, Southern Ocean , Southwest Pacific, West Africa Marine

- Smart fishing- Market transformation- Global Marine ProgrammeOverarching principles for common indicators: - keep them based on what teams need anyway- keep number low- make them feasible and cost effective

Share, learn, improve

Creating partnerships and policies to collect, analyze and share data

Harmonizing indicators and monitoring systems

Renewing efforts to fill data gaps

Using data to inform decision-making, policy development and adaptive

management

Developing new indicators with a bottom up

approach so data are also relevant to national

or local project monitoring
