Marine Spatial Planning is an integrated and participatory planning process and tool that seeks to balance ecological, economic, and social objectives, aiming for sustainable marine resource use and prosperous blue economies.
This atlas is part of MACBIO’s support to its partner countries’ marine spatial planning processes. These processes aim to balance uses with the need to effectively manage and protect the rich natural capital upon which those uses rely.

This
paper presents the findings from the first comprehensive study of pooling initiatives in the
Pacific. It draws on a review of the literature pertaining to all 20 pooling initiatives identified in
the region, and on interviews of stakeholders involved in many of those initiatives. The study
finds that experience with pooling among Pacific SIDS has not met the optimistic expectations
of advocates, including development partners. This is the result of the challenges inherent in
