Worldwide Cases of Marine Ecosystem Based Management

This website presents 60 case studies and cross-cutting lessons of Marine Ecosystem-Based Management (MEBM). MEBM seeks to manage marine resources in ways that protect ecosystem health while providing the ecosystem services needed by people. Rather than focusing solely on a single species or resource, MEBM incorporates science and balances the demands of user groups to create management strategies that are more likely to be sustainable than traditional approaches.
