Indonesia is committed to developing 32.5 million hectares of marine conservation areas by 2030, ensuring effective management to protect marine and coastal resources while benefiting local communities sustainably.

What is the MP Vision and its role in conservation efforts?

The MP Vision is a comprehensive strategic document developed by Indonesia's Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries, outlining the management and roadmap for conservation areas. It includes strategies and actions to achieve conservation goals by 2030.

What are some of the completed areas of work in Indonesia's conservation strategy?

Some completed areas include the development of a conservation area database, strategies for communication on conservation efforts, and tools for evaluating the effectiveness of conservation management (EVIKA).

What is the purpose of the EVIKA system?

The EVIKA system is a tool used to evaluate the effectiveness of conservation area management in Indonesia. It uses criteria like input, process, output, and outcome to assess the success of conservation efforts.

How are the effectiveness levels of conservation areas categorized under EVIKA?

Conservation areas are categorized into three effectiveness levels: gold (greater than 80%), silver (between 50% and 85%), and bronze (below 50%) based on their management outcomes.

What are some examples of conservation areas with high effectiveness in Indonesia?

Examples of highly effective conservation areas include Raja Ampat, Derawan Islands, and Gili Matra, which have been managed successfully and have had positive impacts on biodiversity and local communities.

Why is marine biodiversity important for Indonesia?

Marine biodiversity in Indonesia is crucial because it holds significant economic value, especially from marine products like sharks and rays. It also supports livelihoods and plays a key role in the ecosystem's health and sustainability.

How does the Indonesian government assess the economic value of marine resources?

The Indonesian government evaluates the economic value of marine resources by calculating the annual value of marine and coastal ecosystem services, such as coral reefs, seagrass beds, and mangroves.

What role do partnerships play in Indonesia's marine conservation efforts?

Partnerships between the government, academic institutions, NGOs, and local communities are crucial for achieving effective conservation. These collaborations help share knowledge, resources, and expertise to improve conservation outcomes.

What is the significance of raising awareness about marine resources in Indonesia?

Raising awareness is vital for fostering appreciation and respect for marine resources. By educating the public about their value, Indonesia aims to promote more sustainable practices and protect marine ecosystems for future generations.
