| dc.description | The Regional Workshop on Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs) in the North Pacific Ocean took place in Tokyo, Japan, on 11-13 March 2014. The workshop aimed to raise awareness and build capacity on VMEs and associated management issues in the North Pacific Ocean region. The Workshop discussed the VME concept within the framework of the FAO International Guidelines for the Management of Deep-Sea Fisheries in the High Seas, and looked at examples of different methodologies and options for identifyi ng and managing VMEs, and how these processes can be facilitated. The global VME database being developed and managed by FAO was presented, including how it can support the processes for identifying and managing VMEs in the North Pacific Ocean region. The workshop also identified relevant existing sources of information on deep-sea fisheries and benthic ecosystems. Finally, future requirements and support mechanisms for the VME process were discussed in relation to the upcoming FAO Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction (ABNJ) Deep-sea Project, which could assist with the VME process by working with States and other stakeholders and projects. | |
