DESCRIPTION:

This publication summarizes the results of the workshop on Certifying Leaders in Integrated Coastal and Ocean Governance held during the East Asian Seas Congress 2012.

One of the issues discussed in the 2009 East Asian Seas (EAS) Congress in Manila, Philippines, was that in the future — and to further create a demand and an incentive to stay the course of integrated coastal and ocean governance — there is a need to professionalize ICM practice. A certification program for practitioners is one strategy for meeting that need.
