Presented by: Grant Wilson and Lucy Ward of the Earth Law Center Description: Coral reefs are under serious threat worldwide—up to 50% have already been lost, and as much as 90% could disappear by 2050. Earth-centered laws that recognize Nature’s intrinsic value and rights are increasingly being applied to address global challenges in a holistic and grounded way. In this webinar, representatives from the Earth Law Center (ELC) will explore how these legal frameworks can be used to protect marine ecosystems, with a particular focus on leveraging Rights of Nature laws to support the protection and restoration of coral reefs. Presenters will provide an in-depth look at the toolkit “A Voice for Coral Reef Ecosystems Through the Rights of Nature and Ecocentric Law”, recently released in partnership with over 30 collaborators and endorsers working globally on reef protection and Rights of Nature initiatives. This webinar will provide a deeper understanding of how community-led projects can be supported by ecocentric legal frameworks, and how these frameworks can help shape policy and management strategies that promote locally-led, holistic solutions.

***Please note that the date/time of this webinar has changed to Thursday, October 30, at 11 am US EDT/8 am US PDT/3 pm UTC/3 pm WET/3 pm GMT/4 pm CET.*** Presented by: Catarina Frazão Santos of the University of Lisbon and Tundi Agardy of Sound Seas Description: Marine spatial planning (MSP) and marine protected area (MPA) planning are two distinct area-based processes used worldwide to support sustainable ocean use and conservation. While MSP and MPA planning share similarities, they target different goals and objectives, and use different methodologies, tools, and practitioner skillsets. In this seminar we present our view of the differences and why they matter, emphasizing that using both can maximally advance conservation, especially in the face of climate change. We discuss how the conflation of MSP with MPA planning can create or fortify siloes, impeding holistic and effective management and lessening chances for broad support for conservation and sustainable use. As the world moves to incorporate climate change considerations into planning, the lack of clarity around these distinct approaches can lead to further confusion and limits our pathways to sustainable solutions. To avoid this, we encourage dialogue about scope and objectives of the tools used in planning and provide some lessons for practitioners to adopt ‘climate-smart’ approaches in MSP and MPA planning practices, optimizing synergies between the two wherever possible. We speak to several different ways to promote such synergies and build on progress being made in each arena, including how in certain circumstances OECM planning could bridge MPA planning and MSP and how climate-smart MSP in Antarctica could catalyze both conservation and sustainable use.
