Near this reef lives a vibrant community. Local people play an active role in the reef s conservation and benefit economically and culturally from its preservation. The businesses that serve the community and tourists are managed in a way that is environmentally sustainable. There is a marine protected area that is well-managed. Together, the reef managers and the community are identifying and eliminating threats to the reef. The reef and the people it supports are a sustainable community. Now, place yourself in this community. You will experience a good deal more than great diving or snorkeling. You will learn about the reef and community it supports, as well as your own role in working with your hosts to ensure the reef remains healthy and productive. You will see how the money you paid to enter the protected area is used and the difference good management has made there. Bonaire and the Rock Islands of Palau might have come to mind as you imagined such a place. In fact, it has been CORAL s work in these destinations that inspired a comprehensive approach we call the Coral Reef Sustainable Destination model (CRSD). Built on our experience working with these communities and our expertise in environmental business practices, sustainable marine park financing, marine protected area management, and informal education, CRSD is a powerful tool helping communities achieve sustainability through coral reef conservation. It is also a tool you can use when visiting coral reel destinations to informally monitor their progress towards sustainability. 2006 will be an exciting time. In addition to working with communities in Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Hawaii, and Mesoamerica to create sustainable destinations, we are planning for the future. As a CORAL member, we invite you to share your thoughts and ideas for creating more coral reef sustainable destinations. Your contributions have made this work possible. We thank you for your support. Cheers, Bruce Miller/ Con Amor Foundation Fred Drennan Steffan & Deborah Foster Joel & Elizabeth Goldfarb/ Weinshel/Goldfarb Foundation Steven J.

CORAL REEF SUSTAINABLE DESTINATION MODEL The Coral Reef Sustainable Destination (CRSD) model represents CORAL s strategic approach to coral conservation. The goal of the CRSD model is to measurably increase the capacity of marine recreation providers, reef managers, and local communities to work collaboratively towards coral reef conservation. Upon completion of work, destinations will have the fundamental skills and capacity to implement effective and financially sustainable coral conservation strategies. CORAL s comprehensive CRSD model establishes six broad indicators to measure the sustainability of the destination, along with five levels of conservation capacity that can be observed and measured. Prior to working with a site, CORAL identifies a coral destination s existing capacity to achieve objectives along a continuum of increasing sustainability. Our unique approach of engaging local communities through education, building cooperative alliances among stakeholders, and implementing conservation programs strives to move each site along this continuum. Key indicators of progress towards each objective allow us to identify program success.

At the invitation of the US Department of State, CORAL provides Jamaican government and business leaders recommendations on sustainable tourism and marine protected area management. SUSTAINABLE FINANCING CORAL helps coordinate the Tulum + 8 conference in Cancun, Mexico. This conference furthers the objectives of the Tulum Declaration, a regional agreement by the governments of Mexico, Belize, Honduras, and Guatemala to protect and conserve the biodiversity of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, the second longest barrier reef in the world. Dive operators and community members from Roatan, Honduras rank pollution as the number one threat to local reefs and are planning to partner with CORAL on solutions such as a local recycling program. CORAL and the eleven villages from the Kubulau District in Fiji agree that tourism fees are necessary and should be split between the Kubulau District Education Fund and operating costs for the Kubulau Marine Protected Area Network. BENEFIT SHARING CORAL participates in the International Coral Reef Initiative Annual Member Meeting in Palau. At the invitation of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration CORAL provides Task Force with an introduction to the Coral Reef Sustainable Destination model. 3 Snapshot 2005

WHERE WE WORK CORAL programs currently operate in six geographic worksites Mexico, Belize, Honduras, Hawaii, Fiji, and Papua New Guinea. How do we arrive at selecting a coral reef destination for our conservation work? While high biodiversity and the presence of marine tourism play a big part in identifying potential worksites, a good deal more is involved in our analysis. Site selection is determined by evaluating potential destinations for political stability and safety, type of threats, funding availability, local support for marine protected areas, and the presence of potential conservation partner organizations.

CORAL REEF SUSTAINABLE DESTINATION NAMENA SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS PRACTICES CONSERVATION ALLIANCES SUSTAINABLE FINANCING THREAT REDUCTION EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT BENEFIT SHARING NAMENA, FIJI An octopus peeks out from a crevice in the coral as an ancient hawksbill sea turtle swims elegantly into the blue. Storm clouds of pink and orange Anthias dart through vibrant soft corals. This is the Namena barrier reef in Fiji, a site that CORAL has been working to protect since 2001. Faced with threats from commercial fishing, the villagers from the district of Kubulau realized that protecting Namena could generate longer-term sustainable income for local communities. In 1997, Kubulau leaders established the 70 square kilometer Namena Marine Reserve. Yet the community soon discovered that effectively managing a marine protected area is no small task. Despite an initial reduction in commercial fishing, several factors threatened the success of the reserve including a shortage of technical expertise, limited community support and awareness, tourism practices, and a lack of adequate funding. In 2001, CORAL began work to help Namena s coral reefs by enabling a village representative to visit the well-established Bonaire Marine Park to receive training in effective management and sustainable financing. One of the primary challenges of protecting coral reefs is finding the finances to do so. CORAL is currently working with villagers, tour operators, tourists, government agencies, and non-governmental organizations to ensure Namena tourism fees have support from all communities, are transparent and effective, and generate funding for years to come. CORAL believes that sustainable tourism can and should play a central role in protecting Namena s coral reefs. We recently arranged a workshop with Kubulau villagers and the Fiji Ministry of Tourism to discuss ecotourism opportunities and economic incentives for reef conservation. We also launched a training program for dive operators on sustainable business practices, facilitating discussions on local threats and implementing solutions that support Kubulau s communities. CORAL has been working in close partnership with the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) to establish a larger network of marine protected areas that extend beyond Namena. CORAL and WCS complement each other well WCS focuses on the science and management of MPA networks and CORAL focuses on the people by building conservation capacity and support from all those involved. Our approach is simple: by focusing on the relevant criteria from our Coral Reef Sustainable Destination model, we believe that together we can keep Namena s reefs alive. Thank you CORAL for helping our community protect Namena s coral reefs for our children and grandchildren. Ratu Peni, Kubulau District Chief 5 CRSD in Progress: Fiji

CORAL REEF SUSTAINABLE DESTINATION ROATAN SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS PRACTICES CONSERVATION ALLIANCES SUSTAINABLE FINANCING THREAT REDUCTION EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT BENEFIT SHARING ROATAN, HONDURAS CORAL uses many different approaches to create Coral Reef Sustainable Destinations. For example in Roatan, Honduras, CORAL is helping the Sandy Bay and West End Marine Park Association reduce the threat of poaching by increasing marine patrols. Jennifer Keck, an association board member who works at a resort in Roatan, remembers when you could drop off of many dive sites and see an abundance of curious groupers. However, the numbers of these and other prize catches such as lobster, conch, and snapper began to dwindle due to over fishing and rampant poaching. Jennifer and other members of the Sandy Bay and West End Marine Park Association recognized a clear need to revitalize their marine park s patrolling systems. To do this, the association had to replace some of the marine parks equipment and find a way to give the patrols more credibility for enforcement. Innovatively, the association asked local police to take an active role in the patrolling. Police officers agreed to put an officer on every patrol boat and help enforce marine park rules by issuing warnings for fish not caught by traditional line methods and confiscating poaching gear. CORAL added capacity by funding a new patrol boat engine, radios, and educational signs in shoreline locations along the reserve. These combined efforts have virtually eliminated poaching and dive shops are reporting an increase in lobster and conch numbers. With further assistance from CORAL and our partners in the ICRAN Mesoamerican Reef Alliance, the association expects to implement additional conservation initiatives such as improving a recently launched tourism fee system, installing mooring buoys, placing trash bins along highly polluted areas of the beach, and providing environmental education programs for local schools. While the reserve still faces serious threats from pollution, sewage, sedimentation, marine recreation, and anchor damage, last year s efforts have improved park management, reduced poaching, and increased opportunities for sustainable financing. Word of these successes has already spread, as Scuba Diving magazine recently highlighted the work of the marine patrols in its December 2005 issue. A CORAL microgrant provides marine rangers with a boat engine and radios that decrease the number of illegal poachers in the reserve. CRSD in Progress: Mesoamerica 6
